All the widows watch Through all window sills Hair raisin' in every room Up the street come a walkin' chill An' you ask for nothin' 'Cept to be by my side
See my tears, good father Will they wash it away All my dirt from your holy feet No, I don't believe it works that way 'Cause you ask for nothin' 'Cept to be by my side
I seen you in the river Before God an' man Held by the holy hand of winter Brought low by winter's holy hand
Yes, my sister girl I know that it is true You see me with the Lord's eye, girl An' you see right through An' you ask for nothin' Is there somethin' behind my eyes?
I can look good, I swear When the spirit blows All ore an' all through, yeah My wretched bones An' you ask for nothin' 'Cept to be by my side love
I seen you in the river Before God an' man Held by the holy hand of winter Brought low by winter's holy handTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
