Intro :         /          /
 
 
I went dow  n to the place   where I knew s  he lay waiting
Under the mar  ble and the snow   
I said Mot  her I'm frigh  tened the thunde  r and the lightning
I'll never come throu  gh this alone  
She sai  d I'll be with   you my shawl   wrapped around y  ou
My han  d on your head   when you go     
And the nig  ht came on it was very   calm, I wante  d the night to go on an  d on
But she sai  d go back, go back to the world                   / 
 
 
We were fig  hting in Egy  pt when they signe  d this agreement
That nobody els  e had to die   
There was this ter  rible sound   and my fathe  r went down
With a terrible woun  d in his side  
He said try   to go on   take my books   take my gun     
Remem  ber my son   how they lied   
And the nig  ht comes on it's very   calm
I'd lik  e to pretend that my fath  er was wrong
But you don  't want to lie, not to the young                   / 
 
 
We were loc  ked in this kitc  hen I took   to religion
And I wondered how lon  g she would stay   
I nee  ded so much   to have nothi  ng to touch, I've always been greedy   that way      
But my son   and my daugh  ter climbed out o  f the water   
Crying Pap  a you promi  sed to play    
And they lea  d me away to the great   surprise
It's Pap  a don't peek, Papa cove  r your eyes
And they hid  e, they hide in the world                   / 
 
 
Now I loo  k for her alw  ays I'm lost   in this calling
I'm tied to the threa  ds of some praye  r
Saying when   will she summ  on me when w  ill she come to me
What must I do   to prepare  
When she ben  ds to my long  ing like a willo  w like a fountai  n
She stan  ds in the lumi  nous air    
And the nig  ht comes on it's very   calm
I lie   in her arms, she says   when I'm gone
I'll be your  s, yours for a song                   / 
 
 
Now the cric  kets are sing  ing, the vespe  r bells ringing
The cat's curled aslee  p in his chair  
I'll go dow  n to Bill's Bar,   I can make   it that far
And I'll see if my frien  ds are still there  
Yes and her  e's to the few   who forgive   what you do      
And the few  er who don'  t even care   
And the nig  ht comes on, it's very   calm
I wan  t to cross over I want   to go home
But she say  s go back, go back to the world                   /
