The Dancer lyrics

Artist  : P.j. Harvey 
Song : The Dancer



 Send "The Dancer" Ringtone to your Cell 

 He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire
flames
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my
name
He came bathed in light and the splendor and
glory
I can't believe what the lord has finally sent me
 He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh a while, I can make your heart feel
He said fly with me, touch the face of the true
god
And then cry with joy at the depth of my love
 Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights
For the lord just to send me home some sign
I've looked long, I've looked far
To bring peace to my black and empty heart
 My love will stay till the river bed run dry
And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
I love him longer as each damn day goes
The man is gone and heaven only knows
Cause I've cried days. I've cried nights
For the lord just to send me up some sign
Is he near? is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
 So long day. so long night
Good lord, be near me tonight
Is he near? is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
