Lyrics

Moses

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.

Diamonds, roses

I need Moses

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

And I don't necessarily buy

Ever key to the future

Or happiness but I

Need a little place in the sun sometimes

Or I think I will die

And everything is somewhere

And nowhere is near

Everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer

And I'm just this tragic figure in this corner over here

With an empty apartment and my best friend who is a queer

And everytime, seeing me smiles

And he tells me how well he's walking these miles

But he never asks a single thing about me

If I dies, he'd hear about it eventually

Diamonds, roses

I need Moses

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

Oh, oh, oh, oh and everywhere is somewhere

And nowhere is near

Everybody's got somebody with their wine and their beer

And I'm just this tragic figure in this corner over here

Come home to an empty apartment

And calls her best friend who is queer

Diamonds, roses

I need Moses

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain

To cross this sea of loneliness

Part this red river of pain
