i will return - daniel amos lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
and the city stood
in a glowing splendor
’til her ashes were laid in an urn
beneath a fast-food counter

[chorus]
i will return

[verse 2]
the descendants were born
and they danced their dances
then the sound of their stumbling was great
tilting the world on its axis

[chorus]
i will return

[bridge 1]
and the women gazed in their mirrors
suitors brought them vials of perfume
(quiet lives of desperation)
then golden-haired locusts with the faces of angels
sealed each of them up in a metal cocoon

[verse 3]
and the life ran out
just when it all seemed better
here is a display in a granite museum
a shame on view forever

[chorus]
i will return
i will return

[bridge 2]
and the birdcage was eventually opened
a great flock of nuns flew away
(meeting no one’s expectations)
and the saints who had slept on a head of a pin
came down from the sky at the end of all days

[verse 1]
and the city stood
in a glowing splendor
’til her ashes were laid in an urn
beneath a fast food counter

[chorus]
i will return

[outro]
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
i will be coming like a thief in the night
