Waiting For Elijah

Peter Rowan

[Verse 1]
(Waiting for Elijah)
He's been gone so long now
(I'm waiting for Elijah)
I hope he's comin' soon

[Verse 2]
(Here I've gone and set a place for you)
I've even filled your glass
I remember every word you said
And how they've come to pass

[Chorus]
Even, even, eventually
Even, even, eventually

[Verse 3]
And these bleeding wounds that just won't mend
(And neither will the wind)
White geese in the northern sky
Release the rainbow's end

[Verse 4]
How brightly shines the moon tonight
(Our words lay where they fell)
Here we listen, watch, and wait
I lift my ear to tell you

[Chorus]
Even, even, eventually
(I say) even, even, eventually

[Harpsichord Solo]

[Verse 1]
(And I'm waiting for Elijah)
He's been gone so long now
(Waiting for Elijah)
I hope he's comin' soon
I hope he's comin' soon
