Larry Norman - Nightmare #97 lyrics

Artist: Larry Norman

album: Something New Under the Son


I was standing on the corner when I heard my bulldog bark
Hahahahaha start again
Oh wait a minute fellas
Oh, oh okay, take two
I was standing on the corner when I heard my bulldog bark
I looked up into the sky and saw lights moving through the dark
They were coming down from heaven, each one was brighter than the stars
And I said to my bulldog, I wonder what they are
I couldn't run, I could not swallow, I could only shake with fear
They were coming t'ward me and they were getting near
I heard people screaming around me in the darkness of that night
Then I fell in silence, I was blinded by the light
I felt my body drop off me like an old black overcoat
I heard my bulldog howl and I began to float
Aw, and as that light came down around me, well I could not see a thing
But I could feel a presence and I heard voices begin to sing
Oh yeah (tell me more, hmm)
Tell you what (tell me more, woah)
How can I tell you what happened (tell me more, hmm)
I don't know what happened (tell me more, woah)
I was just standing there with my bulldog and uh (tell me more hmm, tell me more hmm)
And I saw this light in the sky (tell me more)
Ok I'll tell you, I'll try to tell you
The next thing I remember, well someone grabbed my hand
I felt my spirit flying far above the land
No no no
I was flying
Woo
Ah ah
Ah ah
Ah ah
Ah ah
Ah ah
Ah ah
I was standing at the gates of heaven when a hand reached out to touch my head
Then I fell through a hole in heaven, I landed back in my bed
I started weeping, I felt so lonely and my soul began to scream
Had it just been my imagination, well it seemed so much more real than a dream
I couldn't believe it (I couldn't believe it)
I was still standing there in bed (in my own bed)
With this crazy vision (oh) going around and round and in my head
I said what was I to think, I mean what was I to do
(Oh somebody gotta help me, this can't be real)
(Watch out)
Now if you see me standing on the corner and you hear my bulldog bark
You better look up in the sky in case there's something in the dark
Sometimes I stay here until it's morning and I look up in the night
Because you've got to be ready if you want to see the light
Woah, woah
Oh yeah
I'm just standing on the corner looking for something
That was prophesied by the wise and foretold by the old
Don't be standing in the darkness like a man who's lost his way
Because he let his lamp go out
Because he wasn't prepared for the undeniable arrival of the judgment day
