Dave Matthews Band - Deed Is Done lyrics

Oh so I pray

Oh at night

I wake up praying

All day light

I pray to you

And hear my request

I ask of you

To save this baby

O look at the girl

From inside

Is cancer eaten

Is life deprived

And if so by who

Could it be you

I see no need

For a baby's wisdom for you

Oh God the girl

All yellow turned

Cheeks are swollen

And soul is burned

Oh but the girl

The girl is gone

And the deed is done

It must be wrong

Now I pray

My prayers not heard

Could it be your death

Death to mortal word

Oh and see her pain

And drain and drain

Could you be deaf

And blind my friend

Oh and so we hold

Can you not hear

Can you not see

And if with words

You could change the way

Things are arranged

Surely you'd be speaking

Seeking no change

Oh but the girl

Deaf dumb and blind

From the cancer burning

Deep down inside

Oh but the deed is done

And the girl is gone

And I see no faith

That I have won

Well you may find you're little

You may find your tracks

You may go

For me the girl is gone

Oh you may find you're attraction

To me the baby's gone
