bellsburg sessions - elijah lyrics
[verse 1]
the jordan is waitin’
for me to cross through
my heart is aging, i can tell
so, lord, i am begging
for one last favor from you
here’s my heart, take it where you will
[verse 2]
this life has shown me
how we’re mended and how we’re torn
how it’s okay to be lonely as long as you’re free
and sometimes my ground was stony
sometimes covered up with th+rns
and only you could make it what it had to be
[pre+chorus]
and now that it’s done
if they dress me like a pauper
if they dine me like a prince
if they laid me with my fathers
or if they scatter my ashes on the wind, i don’t care
[chorus]
when i leave, i wanna go out like elijah
with a whirlwind of fuel, my chariot of fire
and when i look back on the stars
it’ll be like a candlelight in central park
and it won’t break my heart to say goodbye
[verse 3]
there’s people been friendly
oh, but they’d never be your friends
sometimes this has bent me to the ground
now that this is all ending, i wanna hear some music once again
it’s the finest thing i have ever found
[verse 4]
but the jordan is waitin’
no, i ain’t never seen the other side
so, they say you can’t take anything you have here
on the road to salvation, i stick out my thumb and he gives me a ride
and his music is already falling on my ears
[pre+chorus]
the people been talkin’
they’re worried ’bout my soul
and i’m here to tell ya, i’ll keep rockin’
till i’m sure it’s my time to roll, and when i do
[chorus]
when i leave, i wanna go out like elijah
with a whirlwind of fuel, my chariot of fire
and when i look back on the stars
it’ll be like a candlelight in central park
and it won’t break my heart to say goodbye
when i leave, i wanna go out like elijah
with a whirlwind of fuel, my chariot of fire
and when i look back on the stars
it’ll be like a candlelight in central park
and it won’t break my heart to say goodbye
