Manhattan Transfer - Hear The Voices Lyrics

Come join the circle and witness the magic Hear the voices Believe and imagine Hear the voices Come join the circle and feel the unspoken Hear the voices A spirit unbroken Hear the voices Just a simple storyteller Troubadour on call whenever The gods moved his heart to speech He was something of a hero To the conscience of the people To the children on the beach Son of Africa and legend Music made of pain and pleasure Brought the nation to its feet Every whisper sounds like thunder Everybody stares in wonder When the saints begin to speak He sings and then they speak Come join the circle and witness the magic Hear the voices Believe and imagine Hear the voices Come join the circle and feel the unspoken Hear the voices A spirit unbroken Hear the voices He was sentenced into exile Far away from home but meanwhile Popularity increased Radio reversed his fortune He was welcomed with emotion A voice no one could defeat Now they crank up the Victrola In the corner bars and oh, my, How the ladies start to weep Every word describes their hunger Everybody stares in wonder When the saints begin to speak He sings and then they speak Manhattan Transfer Lyrics Hear The Voices Lyrics
