There's a place by the river on the bend
Where the willow grows
A place a long time back when
We held each other so close
I don't want to forget your face dear
I don't want to fall from grace
Things that used to matter
I can't find here a single trace.
No time is going to be the right time
There's no time better than now
Shine a little light here something's not right here
I'm boxed in with no way out.
The men they don't cry here god forbid and oh the shame
Soldiers of god show no mercy when they fight an kill and maim
I'm thinking of you and home and drinking my chances here are few
I'm gambling on a book that says Jesus saves will bring me safe home to you.
No time is going to be the right time
There's no time better than now
Jesus shine your light here nothing's right here
I'm boxed in with no way out.
There's a place by the river on the bend
Where the willow grows
A place a long time back when
We held each other so close
Oh to suffer this fate dear, each day I watch my friends fall
When I realised God's left his heaven and nobody can hear me at all
Last night I dreamt I saw the devil just as my light began to dim
And the last thing I remember you saying is I'll take care of him.
No time is going to be the right time
There's no time better than now
Shine a little light here something's not right here
I'm boxed in with no way out.
There's a place by the river on the bend
Where the willow grows.
