Heartlandwith Brian Eno lyrics

See the sunrise over her skin


Don`t change it


See the sunrise on her skin


Dawn changes everything





And the delta sun burns bright and violent





Mississippi and the cotton wool heat


Sixty-six the highway speaks


Of deserts dry, of cool green valleys


Gold and silver veins - shining cities





In this heartland


In this heartland


In this heartland


Heaven knows this is a heartland





She feels like water in my hand


Freeway like a river cuts through this land


Into the side of love like a burning spear


And the poison rain brings a flood of fear


Through the ghostranch hills, Death Valley waters


In the towers of steel belief goes on and on





In this heartland


In this heartland


In this heartland


Heaven knows this is a heartland
