The Dancer Lyrics - Singles - Harvey Pj

He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames 

He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name 

He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory 

I can't believe what the lord has finally sent me 

He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil 

He said laugh a while, I can make your heart feel 

He said fly with me, touch the face of the true god 

And then cry with joy at the depth of my love 

Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights 

For the lord just to send me home some sign 

I've looked long, I've looked far 

To bring peace to my black and empty heart 

My love will stay till the river bed run dry 

And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky 

I love him longer as each damn day goes 

The man is gone and heaven only knows 

Cause I've cried days. I've cried nights 

For the lord just to send me up some sign 

Is he near? is he far? 

Bring peace to my black and empty heart 

So long day. so long night 

Good lord, be near me tonight 

Is he near? is he far? 

Bring peace to my black and empty heart
