Way Down - Daniel Lanois

I’m looking for a city

On the other side

And when I get there

I’ll be satisfied

It’s a beautiful city

That’s what I been told

Where we are not bought

And we are not sold

Way down, way down

Way down, way down

A city on the other side

Way down, way down

A city on the other side

Beyond betrayal and trouble of every kind

Beyond my reason

Beyond my reasoning why

Beyond the reaches

Beyond the reaches of time

Beyond the horizon

Beyond the horizon line

Way down, way down

Way down, oh

A city on the other side

Way down, way down, oh

A city on the other side

Weep like a willow

Moan like a dove

I’m trading pity for kindness

Hatred for love

Way down, way down

Way down, way down

Going to that city

A city on the other side

Way down, way down

Way down, oh

A city on the other side

Beyond the start

Beyond the start and the end

To rediscover

To rediscover again

On the other side

On the other side we descend

Into our heart

Into our hearts we transcend

Way down, way down

Way down, way down

A beautiful

A city on the other side

Way down, way down

A city on the other side

A beautiful city

Way down

That’s what I’ve been told

Way down

We are not bought

City

We are not sold

On the other side
