Bruce Cockburn When The Spirit Walks In The Room Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Manhattan or Dakar
It makes no difference where you are
It doesn't matter what you think
Or if you smoke or if you drink

[Chorus]
You're a thread upon the loom
When the spirit walks in the room

[Verse 2]
You could be naked, you could be armed
You could be charming, you could be charmed
You could be open, you could be closed
Be one of us or one of those
[Chorus]
You're a thread upon the loom
When the spirit walks in the room

[Verse 3]
On the march or on the run
It matters not what you have done Nor what you'll do, nor what you'll say
Wе play the role we'rе made to play

[Chorus]
We're but threads upon the loom
When the spirit walks in the room

[Violin Solo]

[Verse 4]
It can appear at any hour
When it comes, it comes in power
You may not walk, you may not see
But you'll become what you can be

[Chorus]
You're a thread upon the loom
When the spirit walks in the room
We're but threads upon the loom
When the spirit walks in the room
