Eye of the Needle (2020 Remaster)

Eye of the Needle (2020 Remaster) - The Divine Comedy

They say that you'll hear

If you're really listening

And pray for that feeling

Of grace

But that's what I'm doing

Why doesn't he answer

I've prayed 'til I'm blue in

The face

The cars in the churchyard

Are shiny and german

Distinctly at odds with

The theme of the sermon

And during communion

I study the people

Threading themselves through

The eye of the needle

I know that it's wrong for

The faithful to seek it

But sometimes I long for

A sign

Anything

Something to wake up

The whole congregation

And finally make up

My mind

My mind

This cars in the churchyard

Are shiny and german

Completely at odds with

The theme of the sermon

All through communion

I stare at the people

Squeezing themselves through

The eye of the needle
