David Sylvian

David Sylvian (born David Alan Batt, 23 February 1958) is an English singer-songwriter and musician who came to prominence in the late 1970s as the lead vocalist and main songwriter in the group Japan. His subsequent solo work is described by critic Jason Ankeny as "a far-ranging and esoteric career that encompassed not only solo projects but also a series of fascinating collaborative efforts." Sylvian's solo work has been influenced by a variety of musical styles and genres, including jazz, avant-garde, ambient, electronic, and progressive rock. more »

I see your eyes light up like fire;
It's medicine to me.
But as the hunted live their lifes,
You're keeping out of reach.
So I keep running, falling,
Till I reach the water.
Run with me holy man.
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
Now, should you ask me to come home.
To wake up from the sleep,
Like a boat inside a storm.
Is there no hope for me?
So I keep running, falling,
Wade into the water.
Run with me river man,
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
So I keep running, falling,
Till I reach the water.
Run with me holy man.
But when I reach out,
I find I'm standing right beside her.
Now we're living,
Blessed with all the thunder in the world.
