|
tell me father are you riding on |
|
the fictional bus up to heaven above |
|
do you listen to the angels on the outskirts |
|
have they persuaded you |
|
oh tell me father |
|
perhaps you have been persuaded before |
|
i just want to know where your body and soul |
|
roam tonight |
|
but i know i'll never know |
|
until i pass away to the next life |
|
i know i'll never know |
|
where your soul roams tonight |
|
until i reach the afterlife |
|
kneeling in this church of stone |
|
on this pew reading my prayer book |
|
we commend to your lord |
|
all the souls who have died |
|
as you walk in the garden |
|
is the grass broken glass on your feet |
|
i want to believe when i think how i wasted my chance |
|
and mother i pray |
|
that it would happen someday |
|
we would find you |
|
where we're going |
