I watch her walk before me Her children in her arms The proof of all her choices I see the weight in her eyes She's learned to talk to angels That's how she survives They come to her at night Oh saint Teresa I know you're tired So lay with me and rest a while There's no way for me to love her
There's no way for me to stop So I wait the night to meet her In a dream that I have lost I watch her walk before me She leaves me with a smile And I'm frozen by the spirit By the light in her eyes Oh saint Teresa I know you're tired So lay with me and rest a while
