Adrienne Young - Her Eyes Were Watching God lyrics

Her Eyes Were Watching God To prey upon a kind and generous heart To turn away from and leave a mark To go too far just to make youself feel better But you could not steal her song Her eyes were watching god Never felt any pain at all From gravel to gold she walks She's not long for this world She's not long for this To plant the smallest seed That bears the bitterest fruit To still believe the sweetest truth Hold up the lie till the sun shines through it Don't you let them steal your song Your eyes are watching god No need to feel any shame at all From gravel to gold we walk You're not long for this world You're not long for this Moving towards the light Peace follows the fight Our eyes are watching god No need to feel any pain at all From gravel to gold we walk We're not long for this world We're not long for this…
