City of Refuge

Before this drizzle will turn into a downpour

I must find an unlocked gate

For the blues came back to me again

I must leave, I've got to move

On this twisted road between Acre and Safed

In Tiberias on the dock, I go all the way down to Eilat

Escaping, fleeing, requesting for a city of refuge

Escaping, fleeing, requesting - for a city of refuge

Out in the horizon, the far off lights are shimmering

I will get there with my last bit of strength

And you, wait for me at the entrance and turn on the light

A man returns to you from the cold

Take me to the altar, before I break

And until the truth comes out, I'll hide in you

Because you, yes you, will be my - city of refuge

Yes, until the truth comes out, I'll hide in you

Until the storm passes and the ice breaks

Until a spring dries, opens up and flows again

Until the judge comes and acquits us

You, yes you, will be my - city of refuge

Thanks! ❤
