He came riding fast like a phoenix outta fire flames He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name He came bathed in light and splendor and glory I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil He said laugh a while 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 'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights For the Lord just to send me home some sign I've looked long, I've looked far To bring peace to my black and empty heart Ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah-ah My love will stay 'til the riverbed runs dry 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 '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 days, so long nights Oh, Lord, be near me tonight Is he near? Is he far? Bring peace to my black and empty heart
