Excuse me,
could you light your lamp and guide me from this slum?
A friend just opened up his wrists in
search of kingdom come.
Eternity is hard to bear when
buried deep in hell
Nowhere to go, devoid of dough and nothing left to sell,
if you please
You know I only want to visit your
place to discuss with you
What we might do to gain
a little holy grace
But if you're not in a talking mood
Because your life is broken too
Then I'll simply sit down
and hold your wing
And share the hill with you
Or we can hitch our thumbs upon the wind
And sail into the blue
Each time he reaches for the sun,
man must cast a shadow
Mine has fallen in the dirt more
times than on a meadow
But now and then it lands inside
the light of paradise
Upon those times the pantomime
will let me roll the dice
If you please
You know I only wanna visit your place
To discuss with you what we might do
To gain a little holy grace
But if you're not in a talking mood
Because your lover just shot through
Then I'll simply sit and hold your wing
And share the hill with you
Oh, we can hitch our
thumbs upon the wind
And sail into the blue
I'm turning in your direction now,
please know it's me you'll bring
If we are meant to just pass by,
perhaps you'll hear me sing
Let no one deny your right
to live a free existence
Watch out and pray for anyone
Placed below subsistence,
if you please
You know I only want to visit your place
To discuss with you what we might do
To gain a little holy grace
But if you're not in a talking mood
Because your life is coming true
Then I'll simply sit and hold your wing
And share the hill with you
Oh, we can hitch a thumbs -up on the wing
And sail into the blue
you
