White Heart - Bye Bye Babylon lyrics

Walking back through history To the mighty city I put my feet on the streets of Babylon The gold and the glitter Towering wonder It's all within the walls of Babylon Strength and security Comfort and safety What could be better than living in Babylon But their strength was just an illusion Now this city lies in broken ruins Bye, bye, bye Babylon This monument to pride is gone Bye, bye, bye Babylon God was not your strength and song Goodbye Babylon Rocket ride through time and space It's 2088 They're diggin' around in the dust of what we've done Now people study me I'm a part of history Oh, did we leave them another Babylon Is there evidence of spiritual revival? Or did we leave a land of broken idols? Bye, bye, bye Babylon Is our monument the Holy One? Bye, bye, bye Babylon If God is not our strength and song It's goodbye Babylon Bye, bye, bye Babylon This monument to pride is gone Bye, bye, bye Babylon God was not your strength and song Goodbye Babylon ©1989 PolyGram International, Inc./Yellow Jacket, Inc.
