Van Andrew - The Valley lyrics

Artist: Van Andrew

album: Half the Man


When the devil haunts you by night,
The preacher man by day,
One tells you you won't make it,
The other to make a mistake,
And the elder tells you you're drowning,
But won't lend a helping hand,
The devil just laughs in your ear,
'Cause he knows that you can't swim,
Your lamp flickers in the dark,
You can't hold your bleeding heart,
In the valley of the shadow,
Nothing ever makes sense,
The preacher screams from the side of the road,
The devil yells back at him,
And my heart gets a little uneasy,
As they're pointing out my sins,
Both tell me that I'm coming up short,
And my souls already condemmed,
And the way is black as far as I can see,
And I'm shutting out my ears to the melodies,
'Cause you're my light,
At the end of the valley,
You forget what you once believed in,
I can't stand a hypocrite,
The chruch begs for your attendance,
But it feels so pretend,
When your heart longs for revival,
But all you end up with is your sins,
And you know that you've left the path,
But want to start it over again,
Your lamp flickers in the dark,
You can't hold your bleeding heart,
In the valley of the shadow,
Nothing ever makes sense,
The preacher screams from the side of the road,
The devil yells back at him,
And my heart gets a little uneasy,
As they're pointing out my sins,
Both tell me that I'm coming up short,
And my souls already condemmed,
And the way is black as far as I can see,
And I'm shutting out my ears to the melodies,
'Cause you're my light,
At the end of the valley,
(You're my light, you're my light, guiding me)
(You're my light)
I can feel my own resistance,
My heart is wearing thin,
I can't stand to hear the liars,
Or my soul just won't pretend,
And the preacher man is wrong,
But so's the devil, so's the devils song,
(You're my light, you're my light, guiding me)
And the preacher man is wrong,
But so's the devil, so's the devils song,
(You're my light, you're my light, my guiding light)
And the preacher man is wrong,
But so's the devil, so's the devils song,
