I Have Always Been Here Before

Lyrics for I Have Always Been Here Before

From the long barrows of Wiltshire to the Pyramids From the stone circles that challenge the scientist And the Neolithic that tread the ancient avenues The children that die forevermore exist For the caveman won't leave you alone For you and your gods alone For leaving the centuries For leaving the centuries I have always been here before Belief in my mind's opened the door Look behind you, look behind you, you are always there Twenty-one years old or maybe twenty more Obelisks will mark the place you fell Where children play, they will mark the place you fell You are perfect, you are immeasurable Comes death all no mortal remains Like the grey weathered stones that you shelter behind You are a monument of your very own And I have always been here before Belief in my mind's opened the door We sell soul We sell soul We sell soul We sell soul The childish man, he shrinks back from the unknown world And the grown man is threatened by sacrifice He so ever protects himself from what is new and strange It adds the man who's running from the past And I have always been here before Belief in my mind's opened the door And I have always been here before Belief in my mind's opened the door I have always been here before I have always been here before I have always been here before
