I watch her walk before me
|
Her children in her arms
|
The proof of all her choices
|
I see the weight in her eyes
|
She's learned to talk to angels
|
That's how she survives
|
They come to her at night
|
|
Oh saint Teresa
|
I know you're tired
|
So lay with me and rest a while
|
|
There's no way for me to love her
|
There's no way for me to stop
|
So I wait the night to meet her
|
In a dream that I have lost
|
I watch her walk before me
|
She leaves me with a smile
|
And I'm frozen by the spirit
|
By the light in her eyes
|
|
Oh saint Teresa
|
I know you're tired
|
So lay with me and rest a while
|
