I crossed the Holy River
When it was just a whisper
I'm never going back again
I built the mighty tower
Drank the wine and spoke the babel
When they said run I jumped right in
Babylon I know your daughter
Danced all night around the fire
Then she forgave all of my sins
Son of Man he walked on water
Put his hand right on my shoulder
Said don't you worry bout a thing
Oh St. Peter
The bird cried out that morning
Everyone knows just what you did
Some things I can't deny
Not even gonna try
Throw back that gate and let me in
I crossed the Holy River
When it was just a whisper
I'm never going back again
Took that half and made it double
I felt the mountains tumble
I heard the voices from within
I saw the stars exploding
The locus was unfolding
I saw another world begin
The door to paradise was open
The word was still unspoken
Nothing will be the same again
Oh St. Peter
The light is all around us
It's only you and me my friend
Some things I can't deny
Not even gonna try
Throw back that gate and let me in
