What You Need is a Saint versuri

Versuri Alan Wagstaff – What You Need is a Saint lyrics

What you need is a saint, if you’re going to pull through.
The doctors have done everything they can do
Don’t ask me why, ‘cause I can’t understand
That you have been marked by the cruel Bic C brand

You don’t need false hope, you don’t need more tears
Don’t need sympathizers, they can’t end your fears
You don’t need advice now, you never needed much
What you need is a saint who can heal with a touch

And if there are angels on the edge of my sight
I hope they’re on overtime close by tonight

The preachers and people have offered their prayers
They’re sure that God’s watching, they’re sure that He cares
But marvels and miracles seem hard to raise
It’s hard to keep faith with these endless delays

You don’t need a pastor, a rabbi or priest
You don’t need a journey to shrines in the East
You don’t need forgiveness, you don’t need regret
What you need is a saint, but he hasn’t come yet

And if there are angels on the edge of my sight
I hope they’re on overtime close by tonight

There were all kinds of healers who thought you’d be fine
Their potions and pills are still standing in line
I’m angry as hell – no more can be done
That I’m nothing special, I’m just anyone

I curse my weak hands that they don’t know the trick
I wish they had power so that you weren’t sick
I wish healing power was a gift I had got
Wish I was the saint, but I know that I’m not

And if there are angels on the edge of my sight
I hope they’re on overtime close by tonight
Are all the saints in heaven? I hope to God they ain’t
What can a man do? What you need is a saint
What can a man do? What you need is a saint
