The Roches - The Second Coming Of Eli lyrics

The phone rings ... who could it be That religious guy from brooklyn Did we meet by accident ... yes we did Did we communicate ... i guess we did He says i pray throughout my salesman's day Stay late at a bar and i hey hey hey His wife doesn't like him ... six kids he's got The holy thing has him tied in a knot He thinks i'm lucky and free To be who i am unashamed or guilty But i pray as every sinner may The deep down blues won't go away ... go away High above way up in the sky Is there a good guy or anybody watching down Help is on the way but you don't know when There's nothing to say Just don't go all the way around the bend Goodnight Put your head away Reach across ... turn off the light Soon you fall into a dream Far in the distance a fade away scream I pray that we will be all right Thanks again ... we were alive today
