Love spreads her arms, waits there for the nails
I forgive you, boy, I will prevail
Too much to take, come cross to bear
I`m hiding in the trees with a picnic, she`s over there, yeah
Yeah,yeah,yeah
Yeah,yeah,yeah
She didn`t scream, she didn`t make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don`t leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they`re hurting her again
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain`t no king man, she`s my queen
I have a dream, I`ve seen the light
Don`t put it out, say she`s alright, yeah, she`s my sister
She didn`t scream, she didn`t make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don`t leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they`re hurting her again
Oh, oh, ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain`t no king man, she`s my queen
I have a dream, I`ve seen the light
Don`t put it out, say she`s alright, yeah, she`s my sister
