Arrangement:
----------------------------
 And so I came to this dream-like place
But I can't remember how
Our lives just break open in front of us
Like pack ice before the bow

 

I followed rivers, I followed orders
I followed prophets, I followed leaders
I followed rivers, I followed highways
I followed conscience, I followed dreamers
And I'm back here, and I'm back here
At the edge of the sky

 

And so I came to this dream-like place
But I can't remember why
I was never quite ready for what came my way
But I've always been ready to die

 

I followed rivers, I followed orders
I followed prophets, I followed leaders
I followed rivers, I followed highways
I followed conscience, I followed dreamers
And I'm back here, and I'm back here
At the edge of the sky
	All is rumour and rapture
	But I just long to go home, turn my face into the sun
	And now I know Jerusalem

[CHORUS] no one tells us what is happening
	 No one ever says what is happening
	 no one ever tells us what is happening
