Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us

Strange things are happening everyday I hear the music up above my head Though the side of my heart has left me again I hear music up above
Secrets are written in the sky Looks like I’ve lost the love I’ve never found Though the sound of hope has left me again I hear music up above
Standing in my broken hope all night long Darkness held me like a friend when love wore off Looking for the land that’s hidden in the cross The finder’s lost
I know I've loved you too much I’ll go alone to get through
I hear Rosetta singing in the night Echoes of light that shine like stars after they’re gone And tonight she’s my guide as I go on alone With the music up above
