Jacob's Ladder Lyrics

Artist: Rush
Album: Exit...Stage Left

Words by Neil Peart, Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson

The clouds prepare for battle
In the dark and brooding silence
Bruised and sullen stormclouds
Have the light of day obscured
Looming low and ominous
In twilight premature
Thunderheads are rumbling
In a distant overture

All at once,
The clouds are parted
Light streams down
In bright unbroken beams

Follow men's eyes
As they look to the skies
The shifting shafts of shining
Weave the fabric of their dreams...

What are the added spoken lyrics at the beginning of the song ? Something like 'like to do an old song for you right now' Cant understand the rest. timessig@hotmail.com
