Just as I was leaving Just as I stopped feeling Just as I was dying and every word denying I felt the wound saw the empty room, 'Cos you had flown away and just when I was sleeping and just as I stopped breathing and just when I'd grown colder and thought that it was over felt kingdom come blood on my tongue rolls the stone away Now you fall like a shadow I cannot touch And faith itself is half the battle, I don't have much (roll the stone away, roll the stone away) Just as worlds were ending and just when I was winning and just as the door was closing and just as my hand was folding the whole earth shakes the stronghold breaks so you can fly away Now you fall like a shadow I cannot touch And faith itself is half the battle, I don't have much (roll the stone away, roll the stone away) Well, it's good to know you own my soul and you have flown away So how can I deny you when I've walked beside you Well I'm just a coward crawling and I am an angel falling Oh carry me and bury me then roll the stone away
