Holy Holy - St Petersburg Lyrics






So I came to your door
With my bag and nothing more
In the dead of night
Took a stone in hand
Threw it gently at your glass
So that I might have the chance
To awaken you

And you came to your door
Looking soft and looking warm
Only half awake
You didn't ask a thing
I heard the curlew sing
You said I need to sleep
Come to bed with me

I have heard
In St. Petersburg, the autumn leaves
Fill the streets
So that even non-believers see

Will you come
Through the cities in the east
Let the trains rock us to sleep
Through the valleys to the sea
Hear the church bells ringing in
Through the cobbled avenues of Berlin

Will you come
Under canvas in the fields
While the sun sinks through the trees
Work our bones hard through the days
Maybe see what we can save
Fly away from here

I have heard
In St. Petersburg, the autumn leaves
Fill the streets
So that even non-believers see

I have heard
In St. Petersburg, the autumn leaves
Fill the streets
So that even non-believers see
Non-believers see
Non-believers see
Non-believers see
Non-believers see

    Such a beautiful song!
    Just wondering - what city does this refer to? I mean, the Russian Saint Petersburg or the one in the US? :)

    L.... V....

    Wondering as well, as I am from St Petersburg, Russia

    A good analogy of St. Petersburg with Berlin. Because I was in Berlin recently and he reminded me a lot of Peter

    So I came to your door
    With my bag and nothing more
    In the dead of night
    Took a stone in hand
    Threw it gently at your glass
    So that I might have the chance
    To awaken you

    And you came to your door
    Looking soft and looking warm
    Only half awake
    You didn't ask a thing
    I heard the curlews sing
    You said I need to sleep
    Come to bed with me

    I have heard
    In St Petersberg
    The autumn leaves
    Fill the streets
    So that even non-believers see

    Will you come
    Through the cities and the heaves
    Let the trains rock us to sleep
    Through the valleys to the sea
    Hear the church bells ringing in
    Through the cobbled avenues
    Of Berlin


    Will you come
    Under canvas in the fields
    While the sun sinks through the trees
    Work our bones hard through the days
    Maybe see what we can save
    Fly away from here

    I have heard
    In St Petersberg
    The autumn leaves
    Fill the streets
    So that even non-believers see

    I have heard
    In St Petersberg
    The autumn leaves
    Fill the streets
    So that even non-believers see

    Non-believers see
    Non-believers see
    Non-believers see
    Non-believers see
