Lyrics
I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now
Till the clouds unroll and you come home?
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent
Your descent
I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now
Till the clouds unroll and you come home?
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent
Your descent
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say, No matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say, No matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief
How long now
Until a weather change condemns belief?
The stone says
This paternal guide once had his day
Once had his day
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say, No matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say, No matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
I say, No matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
I say, No matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
