Matthew's Daughter

I don't know if there's a God up in heaven But I met an angel today Though her wings might be hidden 'Cause I don't see no feathers She's made of light and of grace And so she took my hand And she lead me down As we sat by the waters edge And I said Matthew's daughter Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes So bathe me in water Come and dive in the river, you can start again No, I don't see no halo But I know that it's there Resting one angel, with her auburn hair And I told her my secrets, the darkest I have And I swear that she sees me for all that I am And I said Matthew's daughter Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes So bathe me in water Come and dive in the river We can start again And then she took my hand, said, my love, don't you worry It only means there's a heart in your chest Ooo, so follow me love and come away with me To where the sun rises in the west Then I said Matthew's daughter Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes So bathe me in water Come and dive in the river, you can start again And I said Matthew's daughter Heaven knows I'm a sinner and I've made mistakes So bathe me in water And she said to me, darling, lemme ease your pain Come and dive in the water You can start again
