When In Cairo

I lost my spirit
To a hologram
And, babe, you left me
'Cause I didn't have clouds
I've got eyes
I'd be willing to lend
As you long as you bring 'em back home
And tell me where they have been
I'm missing out on all your
Thoughts and prayers
Thoughts and prayers
I know
You wouldn't like to let it go free
I've been living on those lullabies
From far off lands
Baby, I know you
I know you need a hand
Have you seen it, girl?
Have you seen the desert?
Baby, I don't like it
But I know Jesus was hurt when he got there
And I found God when I was in Cairo
Here's the thing
He's riding off on wings
And he's got lullabies to sing
Wait for him when you're gone
Wait for him when you're gone
Let's talk about the elephant in the room
I know it's about
It's about me not loving you
And I found God when I was in Cairo
Here's the thing
He's riding off on wings
And he's got lullabies to sing
Wait for him when you're gone
Wait for him when you're gone
I'm missing out on all your
Thoughts and prayers
Thoughts and prayers
And you walked the tear-ridden desert
Just to get to Cairo
