[Verse 1]
God of the sun, don't make me wait 'til the morning comes
Light in the sky, look me in the eye, eye, eye, eye
Don't keep me waiting around too much longer now
Don't, don't keep me waiting around, around, around, around

[Chorus]
When I called you from my river of darkness
An echo was all that came back
Saw you wave goodbye down the railroad track
Sometimes when you're out and all alone
And you can't find your way back
Wonder if you'll ever make it home

[Verse 2]
God of the sun, I'll be around 'til the day's begun
One sight of your ray takes the night away, away, away, away
Oh, but when I walk through that door
Take my hat and my coat off, waiting for you to call
I tell you not right now, lady, I got work on my mind
And I'll talk to you soon, always remember

[Chorus]
When I called you from my river of darkness
An echo was all that came back
Saw you wave goodbye down the railroad track
Sometimes when you're out and all alone
And you can't find your way back
Wonder if you'll ever make it home
