lyrics

I thought I had you down and there was nothing more to say
I could have written couple of essays explaining you all away
But then you came like that angel to Peter’s side and said
“Follow me boy we’re busting out tonight.”

In moonlight I saw clearly your face
Oh, the things I had mistaken you for

All that time I had spoke your name
It was easy to spout off in the company of the saints
But I knew you only as I had dressed you up
in garments of philanthropy and moralism

But in the moonlight I saw clearly your face
My tears were for the liar I had made you out to be

I thought I had you down and there was nothing more to say
I thought I was smart and could move on to other things
But then you came like Jesus to his boys in the upper room
and said “If you ever get over me it’ll be way too soon.”
