Slaid Cleaves - The Sun Also Rises lyrics
[Slaid Cleaves - The Sun Also Rises lyrics]
An old preacher holds on to a Bible
A small child sings "The Water Is Wide"
I stand like stone all alone outside
Their circle
A faithless man, a fast left hand
And a hole inside
Her golden hair shined like
Sunlight Sunday morning
A band of gold was never
Placed on her left hand
Now they tell me that a band of angels
Wait's to receive her in some distant land
It's a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don't, blame it on a lack of trust
Now the preacher tells me of a promise
Of a heaven, an everlasting love
But his words to me now are of little comfort
As I see her lying there, just the sky above
It's a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don't, blame it on a lack of trust
It's a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don't, blame it on a lack of trust
If it don't, just blame it on a lack of trust
A small child sings "The Water Is Wide"
I stand like stone all alone outside
Their circle
A faithless man, a fast left hand
And a hole inside
Her golden hair shined like
Sunlight Sunday morning
A band of gold was never
Placed on her left hand
Now they tell me that a band of angels
Wait's to receive her in some distant land
It's a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don't, blame it on a lack of trust
Now the preacher tells me of a promise
Of a heaven, an everlasting love
But his words to me now are of little comfort
As I see her lying there, just the sky above
It's a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don't, blame it on a lack of trust
It's a cold dark rain that keeps on fallin'
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun, you see, it also rises
If it don't, blame it on a lack of trust
If it don't, just blame it on a lack of trust
