The sky was falling and streaked with blood
I heard you calling me, then you disappeared into the dust Up the stairs, into the fire Up the stairs, into the fire I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire May your strength give us strength May your faith give us faith May your hope give us hope May your love give us love May your strength give us strength May your faith give us faith May your hope give us hope May your love bring us love You gave your love to see, in fields of red and autumn brown You gave your love to me and lay your young body down Up the stairs, into the fire Up the stairs, into the fire I need you near, but love and duty called you someplace higher Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire May your strength give us strength May your faith give us faith May your hope give us hope May your love give us love May your strength give us strength May your faith give us faith May your hope give us hope May your love bring us love May your strength give us strength May your faith give us faith May your hope give us hope May your love bring us love It was dark, too dark to see, you held me in the light you gave You lay your hand on me Then walked into the darkness of your smoky grave Up the stairs, into the fire Up the stairs, into the fire I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire May your strength give us strength May your faith give us faith May your hope give us hope May your love bring us love... May your love bring us love |

It's rainin' but there ain't a cloud in the sky
Must of been a tear from your eye Everything'll be okay Funny, thought I felt a sweet summer breeze Must of been you sighin' so deep Don't worry we're gonna find a way I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day Gonna chase the clouds away Waitin' on a sunny day Without you, I'm workin' with the rain fallin' down I'm half a party in a one dog town I need you to chase these blues away Without you, I'm a drummer girl that can't keep a beat An ice cream truck on a deserted street I hope that you're coming to stay I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day Gonna chase the clouds away Waitin' on a sunny day Hard times, baby well they come to us all Sure as the tickin' of the clock on the wall Sure as the turnin' of the night into day Your smile girl, brings the mornin' light to my eyes Lifts away the bleus when I rise I hope that you're coming to stay I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day Gonna chase the clouds away Waitin' on a sunny day |

I don't remember how I felt I never thought I'd live To read about myself In my hometown paper How my brave young life Was forever changed I a misty cloud of pink vapor Darlin' give me your kiss Only understand I am, the nothing man Around here, everybody acts the same Around here, everybody acts like nothing's changed Friday night, the club meets at Al's Barbecue The sky's still, the same unbelievable blue Darlin' give me your kiss Come and take my hand I am, the nothing man You can call me Joe Buy me a drink and shake my hand You want courage I'll show you courage you can understand The pearl and silver Restin' on my night table It's just me Lord, pray I'm able Darlin, with this kiss Say you understand I am, the nothing man I am, the nothing man |

It's a fairytale so tragic
There's no prince to break the spell I don't believe in the magic But for you I will, for you I will If I'm a fool, I'll be a fool Darlin' for you I'm countin' on a miracle Baby I'm countin' on a miracle Darlin' I'm countin' on miracle To come through There ain't no storybook story There's no never-ending song Our happily ever after Darlin' Forever come and gone I'm movin' on If I'm gonna believe I'll put my faith Darlin' in you I'm countin' on a miracle Baby I'm countin' on a miracle Darlin' I'm countin' on miracle To come through Sleeping beauty awakes from her dream With her lover's kiss on her lips Your kiss was taken from me Now all I have is this... Your kiss, your kiss, your touch, your touch Your heart, your heart, your strength, your strength Your hope, your hope, your faith, your faith Your face, your face, your love, your love Your dream, your dream, your life, your life I'm runnin' through the forest With the wolf at my heels My king is lost at midnight When the tower bells peal We've got no fairytale ending In God's hands our fate is complete Your heaven's here in my heart Our love's this dust beneath my feet Just this dust beneath my feet If I'm gonna live I'll lift my life Darlin' to you I'm countin' on a miracle Baby I'm countin' on a miracle Darlin' I'm countin' on miracle To come through |

I woke up this morning
I could barely breathe Just an empty impression In the bed there you used to be I want a kiss from your lips I want an eye for an eye I woke up this morning to the empty sky Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky Blood on the streets Blood flowin' down I hear the blood of my blood Cryin' from the ground Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky On the plains of Jordan I cut my bow from the wood Of this tree of evil Of this tree of good I want a kiss from your lips I want an eye for an eye I woke up this morning to the empty sky Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky Empty sky, empty sky I woke up this morning to an empty sky |

I hold you in my arms, that's when it starts
I seek faith in your kiss, and comfort in your heart I taste the seed upon your lips, lay my tongue upon your scars But when I look into your eyes, we stand worlds apart Where the distant oceans sing, and rise to the plain In this dry and troubled country, your beauty remains Down from the mountain roads where the highway rolls to dark 'Neath Allah's blessed rain, we remain worlds apart Sometimes the truth just ain't enough Or it's too much in times like this Let's throw the truth away, we'll find it in this kiss In your skin upon my skin, in the beating of our hearts May the living let us in, before the dead tear us apart We'll let blood build a bridge, over mountains draped in stars I'll meet you on the ridge, between these worlds apart We've got this moment now to live, then it's all dust dust and dark Let love give what it gives Let's let love give what it gives |

Down at the court house they're ringin' the flag down
Long black line of cars snakin' slow through town Red sheets snappin' on the line With this ring will you be mine The fuse is burning (Shut out the lights) The fuse is burning (Come on let me do you right) Trees on fire with the first fall's frost Long black line in front of Holy Cross Blood moon risin' in a sky of black dust Tell me baby who do you trust? The fuse is burning (Shut out the lights) The fuse is burning (Come on let me do you right) Tires on the highway hissin' something's coming You can feel the wires in the tree tops bummin' Devil's on the horizon line Your kiss and I'm alive A quiet afternoon, an empty house On the edge of your bed you slip off your blouse The room is burning with the noon sun Your bittersweet taste on my tongue The fuse is burning (Shut out the lights) The fuse is burning (Come on let me do you right |

Shirts in the closet, shoes in the hall
Mama's in the kitchen, baby and all Everything is everything Everything is everything But you're missing Coffee cups on the counter, jackets on the chair Papers on the doorstep, but you're not there Everything is everything Everything is everything But you're missing Pictures on the nightstand, TV's on in the den Your house is waiting, your house is waiting For you to walk in, for you to walk in But you're missing, when I shut out the lights You're missing, when I close my eyes You're missing, when I see the sun rise You're missing Children are asking if it's alright Will you be in our arms tonight? Morning is morning, the evening falls I got Too much room in my bed, to many phone calls How's everything, everything? Everything, everything You're missing, you're missing God's drifting in heaven, devil's in the mailbox I got dust on my shoes, nothing but teardrops |

Can't see nothin' in front of me
Can't see nothin' coming up behind I make my way through this darkness I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me Lost track of how far I've gone How far I've gone, how high I've climbed On my back's a sixty pound stone On my shoulder a half mile of line Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight Left the house this morning Bells ringing filled the air Wearin' the cross of my calling On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li There's spirits above and behind me Faces gone black, eyes burnin' bright May their precious blood bind me Lord, as I stand before your fiery light Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li I see you Mary in the garden In the garden of a thousand sighs There's holy pictures of our children Dancin' in a sky filled with light May I feel your arms around me May I feel your blood mix with mine A dream of life comes to me Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line Sky of blackness and sorrow (a dream of life) Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life) Sky of glory and sadness (a dream of life) Sky of mercy, sky of fear (a dream of lie) Sky of memory and shadow (a dream of life) Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life) Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li |

Where the river runs black
I take the schoolbooks from your pack Plastics, wire and your kiss The breath of eternity on your lips In the crowded marketplace I drift from face to face I hold my breath and close my eyes I hold my breath and close my eyes And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise The Virginia hills have gone to brown Another day another sun going down I visit you in another dream I visit you in another dream I reach and feel your hair Your smell lingers in the air I brush your cheek with my fingertips I taste the void upon your lips And I wait for paradise And I wait for paradise I search for you on the other side Where the river runs clean and wide Up to my heart the waters rise Up to my heart the waters rise I sink 'neath the water cool and clear Drifting down, I disappear I see you on the other side I search for the peace in your eyes But they're as empty as paradise They're as empty as paradise I break above the waves I feel the sun upon my face |

There's a blood red circle on the cold dark ground and the rain is falling down The church doors blown open I can hear the organ's song But the congregation's gone My city of ruins My city of ruins Now the sweet veils of mercy drift through the evening trees Young men on the corner like scattered leaves The bordered up windows The hustlers and thieves While my brother's down on his knees My city of ruins My city of ruins Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Now there's tears on the pillow darling where we slept and you took my heart when you left without your sweet kiss my soul is lost, my friend Now tell me how do I begin again? My city's in ruins My city's in ruins Now with these hands I pray Lord with these hands for the strength Lord with these hands for the faith Lord with these hands I pray Lord with these hands for the strength Lord with these hands for the faith Lord with these hands Come on rise up! Come on rise up! Rise up |
