I Will Return

Terry Scott Taylor, Tim Chandler, Greg Flesch

[Verse 1]
And the city stood
In a glowing splendor
'Til her ashes were laid in an urn
Beneath a fast-food counter

[Chorus]
I will return

[Verse 2]
The descendants were born
And they danced their dances
Then the sound of their stumbling was great
Tilting the world on its axis

[Chorus]
I will return

[Bridge 1]
And the women gazed in their mirrors
Suitors brought them vials of perfume
(Quiet lives of desperation)
Then golden-haired locusts with the faces of angels
Sealed each of them up in a metal cocoon

[Verse 3]
And the life ran out
Just when it all seemed better
Here is a display in a granite museum
A shame on view forever

[Chorus]
I will return
I will return

[Bridge 2]
And the birdcage was eventually opened
A great flock of nuns flew away
(Meeting no one's expectations)
And the saints who had slept on a head of a pin
Came down from the sky at the end of all days

[Verse 1]
And the city stood
In a glowing splendor
'Til her ashes were laid in an urn
Beneath a fast food counter

[Chorus]
I will return

[Outro]
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
I will be coming like a thief in the night
