| Lyrics: | He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames
He came dressed in black with a cross
bearing my name
He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory
I can't believe what the
lord has finally sent me
He said dance for me, fanciulla gentile
He said laugh awhile,
I can make your heart feel
He said fly with me, touch the face of the true God
And then cry
with joy at the depth of my love
'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
For the
lord just to send me home some sign
I've looked long, I've looked far
To bring peace to my
black and empty heart
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, aaaaaah !
My love will stay 'till
the river bed run dry
And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
I love him longer as
each damn day goes
The man is gone and heaven only knows
'Cause I've cried days, I've
cried nights
For the lord just to send me home some sign
Is he near ? is he far ?
Bring
peace to my black and empty heart
So long day, so long night
Oh Lord, be near me
tonight
Is he near ? is he far ?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart. |
