Love spreads her arms
Waits there for the nails
I forgive you, boy
I will prevail
Too much to take
Some cross to bear
I'm hiding in the trees with a picnic
She's over there, yeah
♪
Yeah, yeah, yeah
♪
Yeah, yeah, yeah
♪
She didn't scream
She didn't make a sound
I forgive you, boy
But don't leave town
Cold black skin
Naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning
They're hurting her again
♪
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain't no king, man, she's my queen
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain't no king, man, she's my queen
I have a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, and she's alright, yeah, she's my sister
