Now people do say
"There's always tomorrow"
So people they run
From the people they borrow
From taking your life,
To breaking your promise
Come rain or come closing time
Somebody to walk upon
Sweet child of mine,
Hold on
That's the wrong direction
(And I fall to my knees)
Swing low
At your soul's resurrection
You can bring a little love back to me
... Back to me
I've been walking all night
Let me sleep until morning
And if mourning don't come
Let me lie in my corner of the world
Til the color go
Bye, bye
Don't cry
Cuz you never can
Change what's been
Time's slipping
Before it's gone
(I'm giving in)
Hold on
That's the wrong direction
And I fall
(to my knees)
You swing low at your soul's resurrection
You can bring a little love back to me
Bring a little love back to me.
