Am Dm E He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames Am Dm E He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name Am Dm E He came bathed in light and splendor and glory Am Dm E I can't believe what the lord has finally sent me He said, "Dance for me, fanciulla gentile" He said, "Laugh awhile, I can make your heart feel" He said, "Fly with me, touch the face of the true god And then cry with joy at the depth of my love" Chorus: Am Dm Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights E For the lord just to send me home some sign Am Dm I've looked long, I've looked far E Am To bring peace to my black and empty heart My love will stay 'till the river bed run dry And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky I love him longer as each damn day goes The man is gone and heaven only knows Chorus: 'Cause I've cried days, I've cried nights For the lord just to send me home some sign Is he near? Is he far? Bring peace to my black and empty heart So long day, so long night Oh lord, be near me tonight Is he near? Is he far?
