Cadd9 Dm7 Cadd9 Dm7

There was a night as purple as this with a love so close we longed to be missed

Am7 Dm7 Am7 F

Summer eighty-nine and everything stood sure and free and there to be finished

Cadd9 Dm7 C

I long to be there ,As bright as the sky ,At Bethlehem's gate

Cadd9 Dm7 Cadd9 Dm7

September again you come so quick so sudden your strength so strong your kiss

Am7 Dm7

The world groans and strains for the hope of a time

Am7 F

Like a prayer that is wished and willed to exist

Cadd9 Dm7 C

Like knocking so hard ,And trying to get through ,To Bethlehem,s gate

BRIDGE G C G C

Cadd9 Dm7 Cadd9 Dm7

I'm chiding the heart that the body will live to question the power and the gift of birth

Am7 Dm7 Am7 F

To stand and grow and die on the wasteland that scorns the high temples we build

Cadd9 Dm7 C

And stand in the way, And darken the sky ,At Bethlehem,s gate

OUTRO Cadd9 Dm7 Repeat Til Fade
