Halls of Babylon Lyrics

I knew a girl her beauty shone like a light

Still dream about her both day and night

Between her and her demons she lost the fight

I knew a girl her beauty shone like a light

The shape of her body, the smile on her face

The cold mountain water that washed through her dress

Its the kind of image you just cant erase

The curves of her body and the smile on her face

In the Halls of Babylon

The mist of the past where we all come from

I turned around and now she's gone

In the Halls of Babylon

I had a friend was a brother of mine

He loved some girl and she passed him by

So early one morning he took his own life

I had a friend was a brother of mine

I had a woman, a child on the way

A dream in my head that God snatched away

She had her reasons why she couldn't stay

I had a woman and a child on the way

Walking through that heavenly throng

For those who've never done nothing wrong

The rest of us I guess we belong

In the Halls of Babylon

The shape of her body, the smile on her face

The cold mountain water that washed through her dress

Its the kind of image you just cant erase

The curves of her body and the smile on her face

In the Halls of Babylon

The mist of the past where we all come from

I turned around and now she's gone

In the Halls of Babylon
