TRACY CHAPMAN LYRICS - Before Easter

"Before Easter"



I may beg

Beg for money

I may lie and lay my body down

Sell what I would give with love

One day before Easter comes

But I won't let Jesus find me



I walk I eat I sleep

In these streets I may be found

Alive or dead or just reborn

One day before Easter comes

But I won't let Jesus find me



Jesus knows what I've done

I won't let him lift me up

Before I can turn

To look for him

Before I can turn

To look for him

If Jesus comes around again



I'll cry I'll cry

I'll cry for help

I'll let you be the one

To try to redeem the sins of man

One day before Easter comes

But I won't let Jesus find me



I'm gonna hide

Hide from him

Hide myself but not the sin

I'm gonna hide

Hide from him

Hide myself but no the sin

If Jesus comes around again

I've got the rock the needle

The bottle of sorrow

And Jesus Jesus Jesus knows
