This is how I tell him
|
Oh, but it's long
|
One Sunday Morning
|
Oh, one son is gone.
|
I can see where it's dawning
|
Over the sea
|
My father said what I had become
|
No one should be.
|
Outside I look lived in
|
Like bones in a shrine
|
How am I forgiven?
|
Oh I'll give it time.
|
In silence without warning
|
Holding my brow
|
In time he thought I'd kill him
|
But I didn't know how.
|
I said it's your God I don't believe in
|
No, your Bible can't be true
|
Knocked down by the long life
|
He cried out, I fear what waits for you.
|
I can hear those bells
|
Spoken and gone
|
I feel if I feel well
|
Now he knows he was wrong.
|
I am cold for my father
|
Frozen underground
|
Jesus I wouldn't bother
|
He belongs to me now.
|
Something sad keeps moving
|
So I wandered around.
|
I fell in love with the burden
|
Holding me down.
|
Bless my mind, I miss
|
Being told how to live.
|
What I learned without knowing
|
How much more I owe
|
Than I can give.
|
This is how I tell him
|
Oh, but it's wrong
|
One Sunday morning
|
One son is gone
|
