Today I want to slip back to the dream I had When you had urged me to look out Upon the window of my life
Today The choices have all clashed upon my head Is it wrong to leave your charges And go charging round the bend?
Mansions, there are mansions in the sun There's no hiding Defying the night Come out into the light Today
Today My thoughts were like a tent put up in heaven Build a shelter for your mind Invite a stranger to come in and share the wine
Mansions, there are mansions in the sun There's no hiding Defying the night Come out into the light Today
Today They want to tear my body from my mind The rust will show I am an iron bridge that's giving into time
Today The wind blows west the heather and the broom becalms The spirit of a fighting man and lays him Where his wild spirit belongs
Victims will be justified The lame will be leaping This army's for peace Come out into the light Today
Victims will be justified The lame are believing This army's for peace Come out into the light Today
