God of the sun
don't make me wait
till the morning comes
light in the sky
look me in the eye
eye, eye, eye.
Don't, keep me waiting around
too much longer now
don't, don't keep me waiting
around, around, around, around.
When I called you from my river of darkness
an echo was all that came back
saw you wave goodbye
down the railroad track.
Sometimes when you're out and all alone
and you can't find your way back
wonder if you'll . . .
ever make it home.
God of the sun
I'll be around
till the day's begun
one sight of your ray
takes the night away, away, away.
Oh, but when I walk through that door
take my hat and my coat off
waiting for you to call
I tell you not right now, lady
I got work on my mind
and I'll talk to you soon
always remember.
When I called you from my river of darkness
an echo was all that came back
I saw you wave goodbye
down the railroad track.
Sometimes when you're out and all alone
and you can't find your way back
wonder if we'll
ever make it home . . .
no more.
