Lyrics to Salvation
Values and religion are very sacred and beautiful things. The spiritual path is never an easy one and sometimes people get lost along the way. The reel in this song is called Sandy MacIntyre's Trip to Boston and was written by John Campbell.
I got your letter yesterday
I don’t really know what to say
‘Cause you’re so far gone
I think my job here is done
We used to be so close, we used to be so free
Until the Good Book took you away from me
I miss those times
When we would talk all night
Philosophize until the morning light
But who am I to play
God with you?
And who is He? Do you have a clue?
CHORUS
I found salvation and it’s not Jesus
She’s alive and breathing
And she wears purple Docs
I found salvation and it’s not Buddha
She’s alive and breathing
And she sleeps in my bed
You say you’re happy
In your straight and narrow way
Forgive me for saying
They took your soul away
I’m not trying to be clever
I don’t mean to be blasphemous
I’m just doing the best I can to bring you
Back to us
CHORUS
amazing grace
how sweet was the sound
of your voice late at night
when you’d soothe me down
now you’ve gone away
and I miss you here and now
Got your letter yetserday
You say you’re born again
I’m wondering what happened to my friend
I’m not trying to be clever
I don’t mean to be blasphemous
I’m just doing the best I can
To bring you back to us
CHORUS
