Ballad Of Elijah Cain - Phil Shoenfelt[00:00:00]
Written by:Phil Shoenfelt[00:00:01]
I dreamed that I was a sailor[00:00:23]
John Pilgrim was my name[00:00:25]
I sailed a ship out of Bristol town[00:00:28]
Headed for the coast of Maine[00:00:31]
My love she was a young girl[00:00:34]
To me she was a queen[00:00:37]
Her daddy was rich I was poor[00:00:39]
She was seventeen[00:00:43]
I held her close beside me[00:01:08]
And I told her my goodbye[00:01:10]
How could I know that within a year[00:01:13]
She was doomed to die[00:01:16]
Now my fortune is a legend[00:01:19]
Won by force of arms[00:01:22]
But I'd give it all up just to get her back[00:01:25]
With all her woman's charms[00:01:28]
And the rain falls down[00:01:53]
And the rain falls down[00:01:59]
And the rain falls down[00:02:05]
On me[00:02:09]
The Lord came down to Moses[00:02:33]
And he said now listen well[00:02:36]
Write these words in stone[00:02:39]
And take them down to israel[00:02:41]
As the thunder came crashing[00:02:45]
I went reaching for my gun[00:02:48]
When in truth I was only aching[00:02:50]
To put an end to what I've become[00:02:53]
When I woke up the sun was shining[00:03:19]
And I knew that you're gone[00:03:22]
I know I said that I didn't care[00:03:25]
Ah but honey I was wrong[00:03:27]
And I felt just like a soldier[00:03:30]
When I walked into your room[00:03:33]
You said you'd never betray me[00:03:36]
But you spoke too soon[00:03:39]
And the rain falls down[00:04:05]
And the rain falls down[00:04:10]
And the rain falls down[00:04:16]
On me[00:04:21]
Now the road goes on forever[00:05:29]
And the sky it never ends[00:05:31]
East to west and north to south[00:05:35]
And right back again[00:05:37]
And as I lose my vision[00:05:40]
Like some leper refugee[00:05:43]
Out of space and out of time[00:05:46]
And out of destiny[00:05:49]
The last time that I saw her[00:06:14]
She was standing in the street[00:06:17]
The crowd flowed all around her[00:06:20]
Like a river at her feet[00:06:22]
I remember how she looked at me[00:06:25]
With her dark and haunted eyes[00:06:28]
Like a saint throen to the fire[00:06:31]
Stripped of all disguise[00:06:34]
And the rain falls down[00:07:00]
And the rain falls down[00:07:06]
And the rain falls down[00:07:11]
On me[00:07:16]
