Lyrics for Song: Deed Is Done
Lyrics for Album: Live At Luther College [1999]
Hey...
Oh...
Hey...
Oh...
So I pray, oh, at night
I wake up praying for daylight.
I pray to you and hear my request
I ask of you to save this baby
Oh, look at the girl, oh, from inside
The cancer eating, his life deprived
And if so by who, could it be you?
I see no need for a baby's wisdom for you.
Oh, God, the girl, all yellow turn, cheeks are swollen
And soul is burned
Oh, but the girl, the girl is young,
And the deed is done.
Check it down,
Check it down,
Down.
Oh I pray, my prayer's not heard
Could it be you're deaf, deaf to mortal words?
Oh, and see her pain, and drain and drain.
Could you be deaf and blind my friend?
And so we hold, can you not hear, can you not see?
End it with words.
You could change the way things are arranged
Surely you'd be speaking, seeking no change.
Oh, but the girl, deaf, dumb, and blind,
And the cancer burning, deep down inside.
Oh, but the deed is done.
And the girl is gone, and I see no faith that I have won.
Oh, check it down,
Check it down,
Yeah.
You may find your religion, you may find your attraction
You may go, for me the girl is gone.
Oh, you may find you're faithful , you may find out the reaction,
But to me, the baby's gone, the baby's dies
Yeah...
Hey...
Hey...
Hey.
