Cross Over Patrick Godfrey Copyright 2012 Apparition Music Inc. SOCAN

I went down
To the fallen town
in the dust and stench
That swirled around
Through the heat and fire
I heard the silent passage
Of an angel choir

I was not alone
But I was not sure who was here
Or what was there
Or why I should fear
When through the lying air
Came a voice we share
Cross over

Cross over to the arms
Of sweet sister rain
She'll sing you a song
Of love again
Cross over cross over
Mama cross overa
Come walk on the good side
Lover,
Take my hand, cross over
Cross over, cross over,
We'll walk on the good side.

Where is that boy
Who laughed all day
And those words of love
He planned to say
When his world turned dry
And swept it all away?

There were storms in the North
Flames in the East
Starvation ruled
The guts of the beast
When a voice from a leaf
Whispered
Here's your relief
Cross over

Cross over to the arms of
Sweet papa sky
He'll sing you songs
Baby, do not cry
Cross over cross over
Mama cross over
Come walk on the good side
Lover, take my hand
Cross over
Walk on the good side

(Solo)

I shall descend
To the fragrant field,
Where the asphodel
Is the moonbeam's yield
The greenest flower
Her petals sealed
Or so we pretend.

The north star falls
Winter sky is clear
The owl calls
Do not fear
The silent dream
The crystal stream
Cross over

Cross over to the arms of sweet mama earth
She sang you songs since
Before your birth
Cross over cross over
Mama cross over
Come walk on the good side

Lover take my hand
Cross over
Cross over
Walk on the good side

it goes like this:

Papa cross over
Little sister
Take my hand
Cross over

We're walking on the good side.
i say that to you...
Walking on the good side
Little sister.......
