Lyrics
Won t you lend me a hand, whisper in the dark night
I called to madonna, she was calling out my name Purple, show me a river to follow
Saying who s to blame, away from all these lies
won t you lend me a hand
I am a holy man, you ve been passing your time with a holy man, saying who s to blame
She was calling out my name, saying who s to blame
I ve been out in the cold too long, i ve been on my own so long Holy, is this the way to follow
Between the fool and wise, away from all these lies Purple, won t you lend me a hand
Away from all these lies, i ve been out in the cold too long Deep, to give me a line
whisper in the dark night
She said boy what have you done, show me a river to follow Man, i called to madonna
is this the way to follow
She said boy what have you done, she said boy what have you done, i called to madonna
i called to the captain
For it looked like no man s land, show me a river to follow Purple, won t you understand
The hour glass keeps turning, was all he said to me, i ve been out in the cold too long
He didn t really hold the key, talking about the moon and sun Holy, won t you lend me a hand
show me a river to follow
i heard my mother crying
Was all he said to me, i called to madonna
He told me had no answer, whisper in the dark night Man, i ve been on my own so long
so don t you bother me
you ve been passing your time with a holy man
i ve been out in the cold too long
whisper in the dark night
I called to the captain, won t you understand
i am a holy man
Show me a river to follow, and i can t tell the difference Man, with not enough sand to see
i am a holy man
I ve been out in the cold too long, saying who s to blame Holy, i ve been out in the cold too long
Won t you understand, i am a holy man
to put me ashore
won t you lend me a hand
won t you lend me a hand
Won t you understand, i cried as i shook his hand
i ve been on my own so long
Show me a river to follow, won t you lend me a hand, i ve been on my own so long
He told me had no answer, the hour glass keeps turning
i called to madonna
i ve been out in the cold too long
