Charles Wesley Godwin - How The Mighty Fall lyrics
[Charles Wesley Godwin - How The Mighty Fall lyrics]
Church bells ringin', gospel singin'
Mary's limping up the steps
To the worship hall
She was born in the afternoon
On V-Day in 1945 when Berlin falls
She was the toast of the town
Every boy would lay it down
To serve her crown
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Married to a congressman
Decided things way back when
It's a curtain call
Looking in the mirrored night
The image staring back at her is all a lie
It seems a trick of the eye
Just yesterday she heard her
Baby's newborn cry
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Just tearing through the pages
And losing your mind
'Fore you know it you've
Reached your last line
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Mary's limping up the steps
To the worship hall
She was born in the afternoon
On V-Day in 1945 when Berlin falls
She was the toast of the town
Every boy would lay it down
To serve her crown
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Married to a congressman
Decided things way back when
It's a curtain call
Looking in the mirrored night
The image staring back at her is all a lie
It seems a trick of the eye
Just yesterday she heard her
Baby's newborn cry
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Just tearing through the pages
And losing your mind
'Fore you know it you've
Reached your last line
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
Oh my, oh my how the mighty fall in time
