A Gospel Song - Bob Geldof

If you see her say hello

If she asks how I’m doing let her know

If she says: «Is he O.K.?», say it’s slow

But he’s coming round

And if you sleep with her

Through the darkest night

And you wake beside her in the early light

Kiss her gently like I might

And bring her round

If she stumbles if she trips and slows

In the darkest rain and through the driving snow

Bring her straight here

I’ll be on my own

But bring her round

And every dream and every shadow that you heard

Makes you want to cry

'Cause it’s a big bad world

If you want her let her know

If she’s leaving let her go

All of this will pass but it passes slow

And you’ll come around

When the wind blows through October skies

And you wake up in the cold twilight

And you stretch your hand out and there’s

Nothing there but the night

And the darkness is all around

If you see her say hello

If she asks how I’m doing let her know

If she says: «Is he O.K.?», say it’s slow

But he’s coming round

When the rain falls from the blackened sky

There’s a heart breaking but it feels alright

See I should have done something but I let it slide

And I’ll come around

Every dream and every shadow that you’ve heard

Don’t make it cry like you want to die

In this big bad world
