Song Lyrics

"Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us"

by Sam (Leslie) Phillips
Album: Don't Do Anything

Strange things are happening every day,
I hear the music up above my head,
Though the sight of my heart has left me again, I hear music up above.

Secrets are written in the sky,
Looks like I've lost the love I've never found,
Though the sound of hope has left me again, I hear music up above.

Standing in my broken heart all night long,
Darkness held me like a friend when love wore off,
Looking for the land that's hidden in the cross, but finder's lost.

I know I've loved you too much,
I'll go on alone to get through.

I hear Rosetta singing in the night,
Echoes of light that shine like stars after they're gone,
And tonight she's my guide as I go on alone with the music up above.
