Lyrics:
A waking world of innocence
So grave those first born cries
When life begins with needles and pins
It ends with swords and knives
Oh dangerman, oh dangerman
Your blade fits like a glove
When forged in steel
Time cannot heal
That blood red bond of love
In times of trouble youre an open book
With the change in the way you look
And its sad loves not enough to make things better
Turn the tables, well burn the fables
Lies beneath the visions and daydreams
Fooled by now, we mystify the past
Like a dream, like it never happened
When life begins with needles and pins
It ends with swords and knives
God save those born to die

@stl49erfan Somebody finally gets it. That`s my sentiment exactly.
-
I love Roland. End of.
-
It's been over 20 years since I've heard this song...is that Oleta Adams singing this with him? Didn't she provide accompaniment to other songs on this album? Jeez I'm old...
-
@stl49erfan It's in my top 20 of all time for sure. I'm 29 years buying music.
-
I saw them live during the Seeds tour in 89 and I kid you not it is STILL one of the best concerts I'd ever been to. They played this song with psychedelic lights circling the arena during the solo. Just pure magic. I like the first two albums but Seeds is their masterpiece.
-
Why the fuck is there two songs on this album with the word "Knife"?
-
Swords and Knives is the sun, the moon and the stars in the sky, I could just imagine flying on top of the clouds and hearing this song in my mind.
-
@stl49erfan it is a rollercoaster of greatness music, i agree
-

I've been listening to and buying music for nearly 30 years and "Sowing" might be the best album/cd I've ever bought. PERIOD.
