Michael McDermott Gethsemane Nights Like These Silence fell like healing, as I turned to shout "Won't somebody up there please help me out" There's a dead end street around every corner I take And the daylight displays my greatest mistakes Hallucinations, body and soul Each night I feel a little more less in control She spoke of Whitman and the turnin' of the leaves Lovers were made for nights like these, yes Lovers were made for nights like these I've been waitin' on the wonder, I dream does exist They smile as I'm goin' under and claim I'll be missed One step away from paradise, one step away from pain The seeds of despair bloom into weeds of shame I've seen a fallen rainbow in white and black I can feel that restless shadow stickin' knives in my back But there's penance and passion, patience and peace Lovers were made for nights like these, yes Lovers were made for nights like these Now the cool majestic evening invites me to burn I've been waitin' for tomorrow but tonight it's my turn Intoxicated by the banter that the bluebird sings By the visions of forgiveness when those church bells ring I've seen the face of evil, sometimes it looks like mine I've gotten drunk from the chalice of sacred wine I've confronted all my weaknesses, down on my knees Lovers were made of nights like these, yes Lovers were made for nights like these Dreamin' was made for nights like these, yes Salvation was made for nights like these, yeah Forgiveness was made for nights like these, yes Lovers were made for nights like these. |
