lyrics

I know that you’re afraid
I see you looking both ways crossing one way streets
I hear it in your voice when I call you on the phone
I read it in your eyes when we kiss

But baby, don’t worry. you don’t have to run no more
Cuz I know a man who rode a rocket to heaven
And I met him at the sea when he landed on the ground
And he told me all he’d found

And there was

No God in the sky above
No God to deny our love
No God! No all-seeing eye!
No higher judge!

No God looking over us
No God worth more than us
No God to answer to
And nothing to love above me and you

I know that you’re afraid
Afraid that there’s nothing more than this
That when it’s all over that’s all that it was
But baby, what more could you possibly want?
I am your lover, you are my man
This is your body, these are my hands
Raise them up to the sky and we’ll shout out to nothing
Let them know we have nothing to fear!

God is the feeling that you’ve been bad
And God is an ugly mood we had
And God is the truth that was never your own
And God is the voice that sent you home

‘What sacred games shall we invent?
What festivals of atonement?’
We’ll do whatever we want to do
There’s no God, no God to answer to
No God to love above me and you
