Marc Cohn - Providence lyrics

I talk to you in turbulence

That's when I see the light

But she has visions on the hillside

Then she speaks in tongues all night

You've got such a faithful little servant

Why don't you pay her no mind?

Chorus

She prays for providence

She needs a little more of your attention

She waits for providence

Just a little intervention

She was driving out on highway 1

She felt the presence of something strange

She could not tell if it was alien

She only knew her life would change

If you were sending down a message

Why do you hang her on a line?

She prays for providence

I don't know why you cannot hear her

She waits for providence

Are you just waiting to be near her

Are you thinking something

And not letting on?

Will she understand what you planned

Before she's gone?
