"The Sun Also Rises" lyrics - RAY WYLIE HUBBARD

An old preacher holds on to the bible
A small child sings "The Water's Wide"
I stand like stone all alone outside their circle
A faithless man, a fast left hand and a hole inside

Her golden hair shined like sunlight on Sunday morning
A band of gold was never put on her left hand
They tell me that a band of angels
Is waiting to receive her in a distant land

It's a cold dark rain that keeps on falling
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun you see it also rises
If it don't blame it on a lack of trust

Now the preacher tells me of a promise
Of a heaven an everlasting love
But his words to me now are of little comfort
As I see her lying there just the sky above

It's a cold dark rain that keeps on falling
On the just as well as the unjust
Yet the sun you see it also rises
If it don't blame it on a lack of trust
If it don't blame it on a lack of trust
