Loving The Alien (2018 Remaster)

David Bowie - Loving The Alien

Watching theme and go

The templars and the saracens.

They're travelling the holy land opening telegrams.

Torturees and torture goes

Knights who'd give you anything.

They bear the cross of coeur de leon

Salvation for the mirror blind.

But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky

Pray and the heathen lie will disappear.

Prayers they hide the saddest view.

Believing the strangest things - loving the alien.

And your prayers they break the sky in two.

Believing the strangest things - loving the alien.

Thinking of a different time

Palestine a modern problem.

Bounty and your wealth in land

Terror: in a best laid plan.

Watching theme and go

Tomorrows and the yesterdays.

Christians and the unbelievers hanging by the cross and nail.

But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky

You pray till the break of dawn.

Believing the strangest things - loving the alien.

And you'll believe you're loving the alien.

Believing the strangest things - loving the alien.

Believing the strangest things - loving the alien.
