joseph, what did you feel - what could you think to calm you?
what was sitting on your chest all night? read your Mary’s eyes.
and i am here and i want to know - what do i feel? where do i go?
my thoughts i speak to God alone when life comes with a fist.
waiting for the sky to fall, i look for writing on the wall. and here i sit with trembling heart. timid in my waiting i am... still a little sad to say goodbye so often friend in fallen leaves and cold like a silent foreign film. don’t let me fall away don’t let me go - sweet Jesus my words are foolishness- my heart strays like a criminal. hardened with the silence of my fingers in my ears. but sometimes when your wind cries out, i see the colours of the sky. in every flaming branch there lies the fingerprint of you. the house is emptiness itself and when i wait alone and human love has gone away and music fails to comfort me i... pull out the words you wrote - i see your love in everything and you have made your children glad when their sleeping ends don’t let me fall away don’t let me go - sweet Jesus don’t you cry out a little bit? don’t you cry out sometimes in my waking? don’t you cry out a little bit? don’t I wonder how my hope is keeping? don’t I wonder how my hope is keeping? |
