A Town Like Hurricane - A Lily
My son told me he ran to school in the dead of night
He broke those doors down and he filled the rooms with his light
And he held his girl he held her tight he held her tight
You're with god now he said he said
If I were to let you down I'd let you down gently
If I were to speak to god I'd speak to god softly
No-one told my son put your life in my hands
So my boy is angel to the world and to his town
Rest your head in my arms and sleep dear
You're with god now he'd say he'd say
If I was to let you down I've let you down gently
If you were to speak to god you'd say to god softly
If I were to let you down I'd let you down gently
And if you were to speak to god you speak to god softly
You write like a cumbersome angel
Rudderless like a ship lost in snowy sea
You mother and the daughter and the sister of god
You held my head above shallows
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
