Good Friday Lyrics - Miles From Our Home - Cowboy Junkies

Sat at my window watched the world 

Wake up this morning 

Purple sky slowly turning golden, 

Distant elms so orange 

You'd swear they're burning 

All this flowing water 

Has got my mind wandering. 

Do you ever finally reach 

A point of knowing 

Or do you just wake up one day 

And say, I am going? 

What will I tell you 

When you ask me why I'm crying 

Will I point above 

At the Red Tail gracefully soaring 

Or down below where it's prey 

Is quietly trembling?

Two thousand years ago Jesus is left there hanging. 

Purple sky slowly turning golden. 

Cowards at his feet loudly laughing. 

Loved ones stumbling homeward 

Their words reeling. 

Red Tail above my head quietly soaring. 

Waters turn from ice, creak is roaring. 

He says, enough of all this shit I am going.
