I Was Brought To My Senses Lyrics - Mercury Falling - Sting

Alone with my thoughts this evening 

I walked on the banks of Tyne 

I wondered how I could win you 

Or if I could make you mine 

Or if I could make you mine 

The wind it was so insistent 

With tales of a stormy south 

But when I spied two birds in a sycamore tree 

There came a dryness in my mouth 

Came a dryness in my mouth 

For then without rhyme or reason 

The two birds did rise up to fly 

And where the two birds were flying 

I swear I saw you and I 

I swear I saw you and I

I walked out this morning 

It was like a veil had been removed from before my eyes 

For the first time I saw the work of heaven 

In the line where the hills had been married to the sky 

And all around me 

Every blade of singing grass 

Was calling out your name 

And that our love would always last 

And inside every turning leaf 

Is the pattern of an older tree 

The shape of our future 

The shape of all our history 

And out of the confusion 

Where the river meets the sea 

Came things I'd never seen 

Things I'd never seen 

I was brought to my senses 

I was blind but now that I can see 

Photos 

Every signpost in nature 

Said you belong to me 

I know it's true 

It's written in a sky as blue 

As blue as your eyes 

As blue as your eyes 

If nature's red in tooth and claw 

Like winter's freeze and summer's thaw 

The wounds she gave me 

Were the wounds that would heal me 

And we'd be like the moon and sun 

And when our courtly dance had run 

Its course across the sky 

Then together we would lie 

And out of the confusion 

Where the river meets the sea 

Something new would arrive 

Something better would arrive 

I was brought to my senses 

I was blind but now that I can see 

Every signpost in nature 

Said you belong to me 

I was brought to my senses 

I was blind but now that I can see 

Every signpost in nature 

Said you belong to me...
