lyrics

I knew that man, I knew him well,
Knew all his secrets from heaven and hell.

It was the time, and it was the place,
To lead that man back to grace.


I heard him calling from miles away, but
Couldn’t reach him to my dismay.

It was the time, and it was the place,
To lead that man back to grace.

So long in hiding, so long alone,
I went to find him to bring him home.

It was the time, it was the place,
To lead that man back to grace.

He changed the lock, to deter me,
But just his luck I’d found the key.
I heard the fire raged for days and
All his secrets it razed.

It was the time, and it was the place
To lead that man back to grace.
It was the time, it was the place
To lead that man back to grace.
