UNTIL I'M HOLY

On a night when it's clear
I swear you can see God from here
breaking his fist against the wall
holding court in his halls
"Where did I go wrong?!"
"WHERE DID I GO WRONG?!"

And then all the children sing

"Meet me in the sunlight
where the dark things, they don't creep
and hold my until I'm holy
or at least I get some sleep
because the sadder days are coming
when we'll meet them in the street
with blessed vows and a kiss goodnight
we'll make our retreat
to the blind side
to the blind side
"

On a night when it's clear
I swear you can see God from here
