lyrics

HOLY MAN (Bob Jenkins)

I Can Tell you’re a Holy Man
by the way you came into my life in my grief
but I’m amazed at the fact you don’t understand
why I can’t share your belief

Talk not to me but to my friends
Cause they need you more than me Holy Man

I can tell you’re a holy man
by the way you offered me your hand in my shame
but there is no time for so much goodness to be wasted on someone you can’t claim

Talk not to me but to my friends
Cause they need you more than me Holy Man
Talk not to me but to my friends
Oh and try to make them see and make amends

My body won’t move but I still can speak
I’ve got something to say before my mind grows weak
so please excuse me for sending you away
but maybe someone like you can save the day

cause I can tell you’re a Holy Man
by the warmth you bring on with your smile down to me
Ah But please save it for the many that you soon will meet
oh and maybe it will help them see

Talk not to me but to my friends
Cause they need you more than me Holy Man
Talk not to me but to my friends
Oh and try to make them see and make amends
