Looking through a stained glass window
What might have been
I can see the shadows crawling
Clouds rolling in
Snakes hiding in the tall grass
Won’t let me sleep
Make me wanna cling to something
Just out of reach

I was told to never look back
What the past might have been
Do I sink so far down
Just so you can pull me up again?

Come to me, St. Augustine
Sing to me your song
One that brings me back again
Back from the paradise lost
From the paradise lost

Lead me into dark cathedrals
Out of the sun
Wonder if the Fall is over
Or just begun

I was told to never look back
What the past might have been
Do I sink too far down
For you to get me on my feet again?

Come to me, St. Augustine
Sing to me your song
One that brings me back again
Back from the paradise lost

Come to me, St. Augustine
