Roches - The Second Coming Of Eli lyrics

rate me

The phone rings ... who could it be<br />

That religious guy from brooklyn<br />

Did we meet by accident ... yes we did<br />

Did we communicate ... i guess we did<br />

He says i pray throughout my salesman's day<br />

Stay late at a bar and i hey hey hey<br />

<br />

His wife doesn't like him ... six kids he's got<br />

The holy thing has him tied in a knot<br />

He thinks i'm lucky and free<br />

To be who i am unashamed or guilty<br />

But i pray as every sinner may<br />

The deep down blues won't go away ... go away<br />

<br />

High above way up in the sky<br />

Is there a good guy or anybody watching down<br />

Help is on the way but you don't know when<br />

There's nothing to say<br />

Just don't go all the way around the bend<br />

<br />

Goodnight<br />

Put your head away<br />

Reach across ... turn off the light<br />

Soon you fall into a dream<br />

Far in the distance a fade away scream<br />

I pray that we will be all right<br />

Thanks again ... we were alive today
