Lyrics
Saint Isabelle
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.
Innocence and suffering
Loneliness and grace
Painted love and beauty
Laughter death and faith
Where the rising fortune
Meets the setting sun
I'm afraid my friend when what is left
Just the same as none
[ Chorus ]
I will always stand beside you
Defend and mend you, sanctify you
I'll hold you and keep you
And fight beside you
Follow you down love
I'm right behind you
God make a road straight
God make a road true
Saint Isabelle is coming through
God make a road straight
God make a road true
Saint Isabelle is coming through
The textbooks on the table
Radio's on the shelf
And thank you for the offer
But I'll sing this one myself
In reverential silence
The crowd sat in the pews
I climbed and climbed for hours
But all my one of few
[ Chorus ]
I'm surprised you didn't come forward
When the cops dragged me away
There's a museum in the Netherlands
I hope to see again some day
There's a painting of a woman
Gathering wood it's almost dark
In a world thereafter meaning
There's a flicker in the heart
[ Chorus ]
