Rez Band - Beggar In The Alleyway lyrics

rate me

Tomorrow comes early in the morning light

But like a spider in the shadows we spin in the night

The wrong and right is black and white

Someone tell me why we hide from the truth that's within our sight

Felt like the sole performer on a one act play

That the critics would'nt give the time of day

So I changed the characters, rewrote the lines

Hoping that would change their minds

But no one came to see, not even me

(Jesus speaks)

And you were a beggar where the north wind spreads

Down garbage-strewn alleys you made your bed

And he was the lover who held your head in a lap of compassion

He cried and said ««Stay with me until dawn

The night is cold, why wonder on

You've been lonely for too long

Stay with me until dawn

Put aside all you've done wrong

Nothing matters anymore but the love you're searchin' for

Like planets revolve around the sun

I've learned to revolve around th eOne

Who knows the score, who is the sum

The pure and true and faultless one

'Cause I was a beggar in the alleyway

Until one desperate passion play

The dice were loaded, the decked was marked

And I lay dying in the dark

Lord, you took me in and covered me

Turned on the light that made me see

Who am I without your Son

The king of king, the risen One

Tomorrow comes early in the morning light

Though weeping may tarry through the night

Easter gave fair warning :

Joy comes in the morning
