forty days and forty nights

forty days and forty nights

we changed the water into wine

everybody was getting tight

they was thinking about

all those good old times

but

all my life

i've been thrown to the wind

mile after mile

god it seems like a foreign land

that i'll never see again

mary

jesus is here again

got that strange california grin

he looked at me

as he closed his eyes

said daddy

i might not be coming back here

for a while

but

all my life

i've been looking for the one

who could unlock that door

and let me see that southern light

once more

just

once more

ooh

all my life

i've been waiting for that day

when i could hear my father's voice

see them old pearly gates

lift up my head and sail away

i wanna sail away

sail away

sail away
