I went down to the place where I knew she lay waiting
Under the marble and the snow
RE SOL REI said Mother I'm frightened the thunder and the lightning
SOL LAI'll never come through this alone
She said I'll be with you my shawl wrapped around you
SOL DO SOLMy hand on your head when you go
RE LAm FA DOAnd the night came on it was very calm, I wanted the night to go on and on
But she said go back, go back to the world
We were fighting in Egypt when they signed this agreement
SOL LAThat nobody else had to die
RE SOL REThere was this terrible sound and my father went down
With a terrible wound in his side
SOL DO SOL DOHe said try to go on take my books take my gun
SOL DO SOLRemember my son how they lied
And the night comes on it's very calm
FA DOI'd like to pretend that my father was wrong
SOL RE SOL RE /But you don't want to lie, not to the young
RE SOL RE
We were locked in this kitchen I took to religion
And I wondered how long she would stay
RE SOL RE SOL LAI needed so much to have nothing to touch, I've always been greedy that way
SOL DO SOL DOBut my son and my daughter climbed out of the water
Crying Papa you promised to play
RE LAmAnd they lead me away to the great surprise
FA DOIt's Papa don't peek, Papa cover your eyes
And they hide, they hide in the world
Now I look for her always I'm lost in this calling
SOL LAI'm tied to the threads of some prayer
RE SOL RESaying when will she summon me when will she come to me
What must I do to prepare
SOL DO SOL DOWhen she bends to my longing like a willow like a fountain
SOL DO SOLShe stands in the luminous air
And the night comes on it's very calm
FA DOI lie in her arms, she says when I'm gone
SOL RE SOL RE /I'll be yours, yours for a song
RE SOL RE
Now the crickets are singing, the vesper bells ringing
The cat's curled asleep in his chair
RE SOL REI'll go down to Bill's Bar, I can make it that far
SOL LAAnd I'll see if my friends are still there
Yes and here's to the few who forgive what you do
SOL DO SOLAnd the fewer who don't even care
RE LAmAnd the night comes on, it's very calm
I want to cross over I want to go home
SOL RE SOL RE /But she says go back, go back to the world
