lyrics
The kids are at the amusement park. I’m in the armchair half asleep. Night is falling on the house when He comes to me. And He says Oh help me please it seems I don’t know where I am. I only can recall I am the son of some Johnson. When the factory closed on Black Jack Road I had cursed his holy name and as the whole town fell into fever and rust I knew I was to blame. For years I sat by myself awaiting His return alone as I waited by the weigh station watching people come and go. He may not look like the Savior but I can see it’s Him inside so I hold Him and I bathe His wounds and He holds me as I cry. Day by day He grows stronger and a little more at ease but He still can recall nothing about just who He might be.
