Once in Royal David's City. Stood a lonely cattle shed,. Where a mother held her baby.. You'd do well to remember the things he later said.. When you're stuffing yourselves at the Christmas parties,.
Senseless life. I'm born into a world so cold. I cannot understand. Why the fate has chosen me. I'm born as a living dead. Useless youth. I dream about a world beyond.
Lightning slaying shadows. In the tremors of the night. While he creeps among the alleys. Bringing fear before the fright. . She sleeps in tattered trousers.
I talk to the lady with the steel gray eyes. While the sun is going down. And we talk of the things that we wish to know. But she's really not around.
Oh, archer with your bowstring tight. Won't you let fly with your shaft of light. Are you hunting your quarry now?. Are you leaving me, babe, leaving anyhow?.
Saturday morning, yeah. I come in late. Just to find if you were there. Just to look at your long brown hair. . And dream a dream out in the hall. Was that my name that's just been called?.
Yellow flowers bought today. I bought 'em from the man who lives in the other way. Wilting flowers couldn't stay. Not enough water gotta fill 'em to the brink today.
I keep lookin' down out of my windows at the people below. So slow. I keep lookin' down out of my windows at the people below. Lordy, go slow. . Sure would like to know what you been thinkin'.
In the consecrated chambers. Of a mountain's winter day. I left her at the turning. To go on her seeking way. . To pass o'er meadows green and bare. Or brown as her auburn hair.
Mama. When you coming home. Mama. When you coming home. . Mama. You don't have to roam. Mama. You know you're coming home. . If you look over there babe.
Now I told you a long time ago, that I'd hold you. Never let you go behind. Anywhere I might flow. . And I know you believe in me. And I hope you are seeing my dream.
T'was a man of youthful features. T'was a boy of sorrowful eyes. Watching out by looking inward. Tall and stately and full of life. . In his life, he spoke but rarely.
Gazing thru the sands of time and wondering if you'll be mine. A glimpse of future days I cannot see. Shining like a morning star exquisite jewel I see afar.
