[00:10.90]I went down to the place
[00:13.46]Where I knew she lay waiting
[00:16.14]Under the marble and the snow
[00:20.62]I said, Mother I'm frightened
[00:23.50]The thunder and the lightning
[00:26.00]I'll never come through this alone
[00:30.43]She said, I'll be with you
[00:33.06]My shawl wrapped around you
[00:35.53]My hand on your head when you go
[00:40.39]And the night came on
[00:42.91]It was very calm
[00:45.52]I wanted the night to go on and on
[00:50.11]But she said, Go back to the World
[01:00.16]We were fighting in Egypt
[01:02.27]When they signed this agreement
[01:04.94]That nobody else had to die
[01:09.24]There was this terrible sound
[01:12.37]And my father went down
[01:14.69]With a terrible wound in his side
[01:19.12]He said, Try to go on
[01:21.85]Take my books, take my gun
[01:24.36]Remember, my son, how they lied
[01:29.29]And the night comes on
[01:31.86]It's very calm
[01:34.19]I'd like to pretend that my father was wrong
[01:39.07]But you don't want to lie, not to the young
[01:48.87]We were locked in this kitchen
[01:51.38]I took to religion
[01:53.85]And I wondered how long she would stay
[01:58.50]I needed so much
[02:01.01]To have nothing to touch
[02:03.53]I've always been greedy that way
[02:08.16]But my son and my daughter
[02:10.94]Climbed out of the water
[02:13.31]Crying, Papa, you promised to play
[02:17.81]And they lead me away
[02:20.59]To the great surprise
[02:23.16]It's Papa, don't peek, Papa, cover your eyes
[02:27.88]And they hide, they hide in the World
[02:37.87]Now I look for her always
[02:40.39]I'm lost in this calling
[02:42.72]I'm tied to the threads of some prayer
[02:47.42]Saying, When will she summon me
[02:50.03]When will she come to me
[02:52.76]What must I do to prepare
[02:56.89]When she bends to my longing
[02:59.87]Like a willow, like a fountain
[03:02.38]She stands in the luminous air
[03:06.97]And the night comes on
[03:09.57]And it's very calm
[03:12.24]I lie in her arms and says, when I'm gone
[03:16.68]I'll be yours, yours for a song
[03:26.78]Now the crickets are singing
[03:29.36]The vesper bells ringing
[03:31.79]The cat's curled asleep in his chair
[03:36.33]I'll go down to Bill's Bar
[03:39.00]I can make it that far
[03:41.33]And I'll see if my friends are still there
[03:45.82]Yes, and here's to the few
[03:48.77]Who forgive what you do
[03:51.03]And the fewer who don't even care
[03:56.02]And the night comes on
[03:58.54]It's very calm
[04:00.91]I want to cross over, I want to go home
[04:05.70]But she says, Go back, go back to the world
