When i walk beside her
I am the better man
When i look to leave her
I always stagger back again
Once i built an ivory tower
So i could worship from above
When i climb down to be set free
She took me in again
There's a big
A big hard sun
Beating on the big people
In the big hard world
When she comes to greet me
She is mercy at my feet
I see her inner charm
She just throws it back at me
Once i dug an early grave
To find a better land
She just smiled and laughed at me
And took her rules back again
When i go to cross that river
She is comfort by my side
When i try to understand
She just opens up her hands
Once i stood to lose her
And i saw what i had done
Bowed down and threw away the hours
Of her garden and her sun
So i tried to want her
I turned to see her weep
40 days and 40 nights
And it's still coming down on me
