James - Live From Madison Square Garden

You said, "My son, don't rely on a sword
'Cause your words can outlive even time
And I've counted my blessings, rest are for you
Please listen close for a while
And breathe, breathe, deep for me James
Don't you feel that you're free now from pain?
I've heard about heaven for years
Can't be sure where you are, wander on blessed James
I'm fine with you here"

I made the mistake once of fearing the end
Is this life that we live just the world's accidental?
Not a chance, I move on with a smile
Are you surprised where you are?
You can breathe, breathe, deep for me James
Don't you feel that you're free now from pain?
I've heard about heaven for years
Can't be sure where you are, wander on blessed James
I'm fine with you here
I'm fine with you here

I grew up slow on the heels of the rest
Left my heart back at home, carry you in my chest
'Cause I don't feel like crying today
Why can't we talk just for awhile?
And breathe, breathe, deep for me James
Don't you feel that you're free now from pain?
I've heard about heaven for years
Can't be sure where you are, wander on blessed James
I'm fine with you here

See you may have come and go
And you are never at home
Father, come tidy it all
Someday is someday
I've never been the same since you gone
Father, oh father, why don't you just let me know

You said, "Son, just listen to me
I'm doing fine, James
Now you can sit back and just breathe
And it's time now, let yourself go
Hold me close, spin the dream
The curtain will fall but behind it I know that you're here"
