Lo And Behold

Simon, he was a man Held his heart out in his hand A hollow land of autumn breeze Evenings in the brittle rain Leaves that fill the barren plain With simple pain, embroideries In the temple yesterday Was a man, who came to pray Who couldn't stay and couldn't leave So, he fell down on his knees Sued for grace and sued for peace A little ease and not to grieve Marion, she met a man Took her to Jerusalem To take a stand, escape a scene To wander in the honey sea Drink the milk of memory And never be herself again In the temple yesterday Was a woman came to pray Who couldn't say and couldn't see So, she fell down on her knees Sued for grace and sued for peace Sued the priest to set her free Lo, lo and behold Lo, lo and behold Lo, lo and behold Lo, lo and behold
