He Comes Riding Lyrics by William Gibson, Joe Raposo, The Premiere Cast of Rag Dolly

Rag Dolly 1984 Premiere Soundtrack

1984

[WOLF]
THE NIGHT FILLS WITH TERROR, THE SOUL IS STRIPPED BARE
THE BATTLE IS OVER, AND NOBODY WON
AND THERE'S NO ONE TO CARE
THE SPIRIT SHATTERS, THERE’S NO TRACE OF WILL
AS THE BLOOD MOON IS RISING ABOVE YOU
A PALE SHADOW LOOMS ON THE HILL
AND THEN HE COMES RIDING, THE WIND CHILLS YOUR FACE
THE TERRIBLE MOMENT YOU DREAD THE MOST
LOCKS YOU IN ITS EMBRACE
AND THOUGH YOU GO RIDING, WITH HIM AT YOUR SIDE
HIS SMILE LEADS YOU ON, ‘TIL YOUR LAST BREATH IS GONE
AND ETERNITY'S DOOR OPENS WIDE
HE'S QUIETLY WAITING, A HUSH FILLS THE AIR
HIS EYES GLOW A TENDER ENCOURAGEMENT
THAT CAN TAKE YOU CLOSER, LEADING YOU THERE
AND THERE’S NO ESCAPING, ALL PATHS ARE AS ONE
THE BLOOD MOON IS RISING ABOVE YOU
YOUR LITTLE STORY IS DONE
AND SO HE COMES RIDING, BEFORE BREAK OF DAY
THE NIGHTMARE THAT COST YOU A LIFETIME
BREAKS OUT AND SWEEPS YOU AWAY
AND THOUGH YOU GO RIDING, THERE'S NOWHERE TO HIDE
HIS SMILE LEADS YOU ON, AND YOUR LAST BREATH IS GONE
AND ETERNITY'S DOOR OPENS WIDE
OPENS WIDE
OPENS WIDE!
