One Sunday Morning (Song for Jane Smiley's Boyfriend)

歌詞

This is how I tell it O' but it's long One Sunday morning O' one son is gone Against the weather dawning Over the sea My father said what I had become No one should be Outside I look lived in Like the bones in a shrine How am I forgiven O' I'll give it time This I learned without warning Holding my brow In time we thought I would kill him O' but I didn't know how I said it's your God I don't believe in No your bible can't be true Knocked down by the long lie He cried I fear what waits for you I can hear those bells Spoken and gone I feel relief I feel well Now he knows he was wrong Ring 'em cold for my father Frozen underground Jesus I wouldn't bother He belongs to me now Something sad keeps moving So I wandered around I fell in love with the burden Holding me down Bless my mind I miss Being told how to live What I learned without knowing How much more I owe than I can give This is how I tell it O' but it's long One Sunday morning One son is gone
