Israel Lyrics

The song Israel is performed by Siouxsie & Banshees in the album named The Best of Siouxsie & Banshees in the year 2002 .

Little orphans in the snow
With nowhere to call a home
Start their singing
Waiting through the summertime
To thaw your hearts in wintertime
That's why they're singing...
Waiting for a sign to turn blood into wine
The sweet taste in your mouth--turned bitter in its gla*s
Israel...in Israel
Israel...in Israel
Shattered fragments of the past
Meet in veins on the stained gla*s
Like the lifeline in your palm
Red and green reflects the scene
Of a long forgotten dream
There were princes and there were kings
Now hidden in disguise--cheap wrappings of lies
Keep your heart alive with a song from inside
Even though we're all alone
We are never on our own when we're singing
There's a man who's looking in
And he smiles a toothless grin
Because he's singing...
See some people shine with glee
But their song is jealousy
Their hate is clanging--maddening
In Israel...will they sing Happy Noel
Israel...in Israel
Israel...in Israel
In Israel will they sing Happy Noel
