Song For St. Louis Lyrics

She is watching, she is waiting over us all

She is watching, she is waiting as the night falls

Do do do do do do do

As the night falls

And who am I that I should see you

And take refuge under your arms

And who are we, the people

Wrestling with our past in chant and in song

Is it even ours? Is it even ours?

Is it even ours? Is it even ours?

She is watching, she is waiting over us all

She is watching, she is waiting as the night falls

Do do do do do do do

As the night falls

How did we get here, little ones

Do we understand where we came from

This meeting place of rivers, bodies

Red with blue and bullets with skin

It's a funny place we all happened to be in

It's a funny place we all happened to be in

Hold the air, stay there, sleeping city

If you hold the space, the sky will fade to black each night

Do-do-do do-do. Do-do-do do-do-do-do, do-do

She is watching, she is waiting over us all

She is watching out and waiting

And will the night fall

Will the night still fall
