"Shades Of The Sun" lyrics

I stood down in the shade of the sun
To look for some better days
A better day had not yet dawned
Tried to cross where the water was wide
Thought I saw Eden across on the other side

Oh, Lord
Lord, don't you hear me?
Oh, Lord
Lord, can't you hear me?

I stood down in the shade of the sun
To look for my woman
My woman she was gone
Kept hammering away at the gate
I kept a knocking, but I was far too late

Woman
Woman, don't you hear me?
Woman
Woman, don't you hear me?

I stood down in the shade of the sun
