Now that he's gone | |
Now the world has moved on | |
Since he called my name nothing's the same | |
As my sisters cried he said, "Lazarus rise" | |
To love and anoint or just prove a point | |
I'm the one that he saved | |
I'm the one that he raised | |
From the dark quiet sleep from the peace of the grave | |
I'm the one who owes much but that no one will touch | |
Mothers see me and cry | |
Dogs bare teeth as | |
I walk byI don't see a veil between heaven and hell | |
The truth is there's nothing but warm light and singing | |
But here in between a voice haunts my dreams | |
Martha does what she can, but won’t look at my hands | |
I'm the one that he saved | |
I'm the one that he raised | |
From the dark quiet sleep from the peace of the grave | |
I'm the one who owes much but that no one will touch | |
Mothers see me and cry | |
Dogs bare teeth as | |
I walk byI love the cool mornings, | |
I love a hot meal | |
The pulse of the street, night, jasmine and clean sheets | |
I can’t sleep or rest | |
I feel lost and hard pressed | |
I wander these rooms still looking for you | |
Now I ought to be grateful to drink from the grail | |
But I don't belong either side of this veil | |
I look down at my hands that | |
I clasp in my lap | |
When he left this world | |
I thought he'd take me back |
Now that he' s gone | |
Now the world has moved on | |
Since he called my name nothing' s the same | |
As my sisters cried he said, " Lazarus rise" | |
To love and anoint or just prove a point | |
I' m the one that he saved | |
I' m the one that he raised | |
From the dark quiet sleep from the peace of the grave | |
I' m the one who owes much but that no one will touch | |
Mothers see me and cry | |
Dogs bare teeth as | |
I walk byI don' t see a veil between heaven and hell | |
The truth is there' s nothing but warm light and singing | |
But here in between a voice haunts my dreams | |
Martha does what she can, but won' t look at my hands | |
I' m the one that he saved | |
I' m the one that he raised | |
From the dark quiet sleep from the peace of the grave | |
I' m the one who owes much but that no one will touch | |
Mothers see me and cry | |
Dogs bare teeth as | |
I walk byI love the cool mornings, | |
I love a hot meal | |
The pulse of the street, night, jasmine and clean sheets | |
I can' t sleep or rest | |

Now I ought to be grateful to drink from the grail | |
But I don' t belong either side of this veil | |
I look down at my hands that | |
I clasp in my lap | |
When he left this world | |
I thought he' d take me back |
Now that he' s gone | |
