They Won't Let Me Go - Duvall, Seville

I sat in my armchair

And listened politely

As you tried to invite me

But the answer was no

And the distance between us

Can never be crossed now

And I’m calling out for you

But they won’t let me go

They won’t let me go

The people around you

A crowd without number

All beautifully singing

And dressed up like snow

Can noone believe me

With one drop of water

I’m calling out for you

But they won’t let me go

They won’t let me go

And I’m crawling for the table

Melting like snow

And they won’t let me go

I wish I could drown down here in this ocean of light

I wish I could close my ears to the chorus of Christ

I wish I was blind

But I can’t close my eyes

I can’t close my eyes

The fire is freezing

It burns without breathing

I’m down in the darkness

Where nothing can grow

Eternally knowing

I’ve chosen to be here

I’m calling out for you

But they won’t let me go

They won’t let me go

And I’m crawling for the table

Melting like snow

And they won’t let me go

They won’t let me go
