abbey lincoln - down here below (2007) lyrics

[verse 1]
down here below
the winds of change are blowin’
through the weary night
i prayed my soul will find me shinin’
in the mornin’ light
down here below

[verse 2]
down here below
it’s not so easy just to be
sometimes i’m really all at sea
you made me when the world was new
and skies were blue
and i am here because there’s you

[chorus]
they say i’ll never see your face
and we’re all banished from your grace
the one you fashioned with your hand
and scattered all across the land
but i am happy just to know
that you will go where i must go
for you will send me, this i know
living here, down here below
[verse 3]
down here below
setting sun is shining
on a melancholy moon
i hear the distant thunder
and the crying of the loon
down here below

[verse 4]
i’m yours alone
the only one to call my own
the only one i’ve ever known
sometimes i see you standing there
sometimes i’m free
and you are here, down here with me

[chorus]
you made me just the way to be
a heart with feelin’, eyes to see
a strong embrace, a simple hand
a spirit free that says i can
and i am happy just to know
that you will go where i must go
for there are wounds and scars to show
living here, down here below
living here, down here below
down here below
