Lyrics
David Comes to Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
David was a boy, just a letch,
A simple means of birth, oh so sick,
Another wasted life, like so many before,
But David wanted better, so much more
David's got a feeling, earthly bounds are retreating,
He's gonna get to heaven tonight
David's got a feeling, earthly bounds are retreating
All he has to do is step into the light
The promise of heaven out of reach.
With expectations he couldn't meet
But David found a way to jump the line
A back door in to a life divine,
Death comes swiftly, for those who wait,
But he's just like the rest of us, an impatient ingrate
