[Verse 1]
This is where your sleepless eyes will close
This is where the weary find repose
This is where a kinder bugle blows
This is where you'll wake
To find the River Jordan flows

[Chorus]
Scarlet nights waiting sleep is overdue
Scarlet nights ending here on in they're blue

[Verse 2]
Yes I know we're not saying goodbye
Yes I know that farewell don't apply
Yet I know no matter how I try
Yes I know, and you should know
That all the same I'll cry

[Chorus]
Scarlet nights waiting sleep is overdue
Scarlet nights ending here on in they're blue

[Bridge]
Blue as skies and blue as heavens
Watching over Galilee and Rome
Blue as water, Jordan's waters
Blue as dawn and dawn will take you home
[Chorus]
Scarlet nights waiting sleep is overdue
Scarlet nights ending here on in they're blue

[Outro]
Blue as skies and blue as heavens watching over you
Blue as water, Jordan's waters washing over you
