|
I called to Madonna |
|
To give me a line |
|
She said boy what have you done |
|
You've been passing your time with a holy man |
|
Talking about the moon and sun |
|
And I can't tell the difference |
|
Between the fool and wise |
|
Show me a river to follow |
|
Away from all these lies |
|
I called to the captain |
|
To put me ashore |
|
For it looked like no man's land |
|
Is this the way to follow |
|
I cried as I shook his hand |
|
He told me had no answer |
|
He didn't really hold the key |
|
I am a simple man |
|
Was all he said to me |
|
I've been on my own so long |
|
Won't you lend me a hand |
|
I've been out in the cold too long |
|
Won't you understand |
|
I heard my mother crying |
|
She was calling out my name |
|
Whisper in the dark night |
|
Saying who's to blame |
|
The hour glass keeps turning |
|
With not enough sand to see |
|
I am a holy man |
|
So don't you bother me |
|
I've been on my own so long |
|
Won't you lend me a hand |
|
I've been out in the cold too long |
|
Won't you understand |
|
I've been on my own so long |
|
Won't you lend me a hand |
|
I've been out in the cold too long |
|
Won't you understand |
