( repeat final refrain six more times with increasing intensity , volume , tragic pitch and siren sweetness , followed by a singular hallelujah chorus intoned in pure spirit ) we have gone you have gone the way of pleasure you have gone the way of pain you say , yes you say `` we have gone the way '' she has gone the way of glory with a ribbon in her hair he has gone the way of violence cutting the ribbon she did wear before she hid herself in shame so we say , o no , we say `` she has gone away '' while he rises to new fame yes we all know his name yet for that , he 's only rich and vain `` no one 's to blame but the bastard 's here to stay '' if we are wise , we will walk away make it back ( the sweetest vibe ) if you try to make it all the way back you might get hungry or you might get trapped but we are not children this much i know it really doesnt matter which way we go so if you lose hold on all of these facts by god , dear lady , we just might make it back and i see , theres a rose , a simple symbol , if it grows , like the blood on a prayer , so sanctified there , where the rivers all run , as they sing of the sun , and the rhyme is not forced , by now , nor divorced , from the earth or this notion , then let us trust our emotion , for once , yes come , we can laugh it all underrolling thundertonight , chanting psalm ninety-five , it 's the sweetest vibe and if you cant make it by fog or by fire or when i tell you , my love , its not about our desire then turn a deaf ear im just in a mood sometimes you cant trust yourself , though you think that you should but if you should lose your hold on these facts by god , dear lady , we just might make it back until i found you you say you spend your nights in france teaching the young poets how to dance you say you preach in the streets of manila then return to japan to defeat godzilla me , im out here in the blue wondering what in the world i should do since you left my heart like a hurricane perhaps for jamaica , or else for spain ive been to sodom lost some time in gomorrah built myself a spaceship and flew clear to tomorrow done about everything one man can do but i never knew love until i met you you may right all the worlds wrongs with the power of your sweet song follow a rainbow over the moon yes i believe you are that kind of girl but even if you find the golden bough turn all magic into here and now no treasure on earth would be enough compared to the pleasure of our love youve been to paris youve been to prague tripped the light fantastic through the london fog seen about everything one woman can see but you never knew love until you met me in the throes of your wildest flight as you ventured your soul for the glory of night yes you slipped through the tempests eye and we crossed each other where the angels fly now we are blessed and content to soar through the great and holy sky of the lord so goodbye dear sodom sayonara my sweet gomorrah i once gave my heart to you but today ive found another and our ships not going down as we dance across the stars of god not giving the devil or damnation even a wink of a thought elegy for emily its hard to leave the sun i say and harder to fight the rope that dangles and gently tickles me with temptation to know have you seen them coming , sister ?
