Robbie Robertson - Let Love Reign Lyrics






Last night I had a dream
Woke up in a cold sweat
Was that thunder that I heard
Or bombs dropping from a jet?
Out the window, I saw smoke
Flowin' down the street
All that's left was graffiti
Buildings warped from the heat

Was this just a nightmare
Or maybe a warning sign? (Maybe a warning sign)

Let love reign
Let love reign down
Let love rise
From the underground
Oh, let love reign
On your enemy
Let love reign down
Over you and me

In my time, we've seen heroes
Shot down before our eyes
In my time, I've lost loved ones
Never got to say goodbye
In my time, we've bowed our heads
In sorrow of mankind
Raisin' hope that tomorrow
There may peace of mind

As world leaders take us
On a guided tour of Hell (On a guided tour of Hell)

Let love reign
Let love reign down
Let love shine
On the dark side of town
Oh, let love reign
On a refugee
Let love reign down
Over you and me

There's a rose that will not wither
There's a bough that will not break
Is what you hold most precious
At the bottom of the lake?
There's an angel of darkness
And an angel of light
We got one on the left
We've got one on the right

By the light of burning crosses
In this beautiful, broken world

Let love reign
Let love reign down
Let love rise
From the underground
Oh, let love reign
Like John Lennon said
Let love reign down
For the tears that we shed

Oh, let love reign
On your enemy
Let love reign down
Over you and me

  1. A.... K....

    A positive surprise this album, with many ol rockers my experience is maybe one or two songs on their recent al-bums are really good, its like goldwashin, its ok, it is as it is.
    Here is creativity.

  2. K.... G....

    Nobody paints so much imagery with lyrics the way Robbie does.

    Take a picture of this
    : The fields are empty; abandoned '59 Chevy -- laying in the back seat listening to Little Willie John.

    Love you, Robbie. Thanks for the tunes and the stories.

    Six Nations Reserve probably owns a kind of eternal creativity fountain, where its legendary native, Robbie Robertson
    has certainly dived and drunk several times. Born as a landmark of Rock & Roll, SINEMATIC album brings a whole new scenario of mystic and
    gorgeous sonority paths, with colourful timbres curves, impressive rhythm sessions ground, epical voices atmosphere and enigmatic melody
    flowers, that only THE BAND 's former guitarrist and songwriter can lead us through, driving his sonic caravan with a dream team onboard. It is
    worth any second of each eight long years waiting since his last album.
