Ave Maria Words and Music by Tom Franz ©2008 In the bowels of the city In the heart of the night Where the lost and the lonely Are drawn to the light And fate will await the outcome From desire to deliverance Is impossibly long Cause perception to truth Can go real, real wrong But it is what it is And then some Our lady of the dark How I’d love to embark Does her holiness have a spark In her eye for me Ave Maria Can’t you see I need ya Can’t you feel the Heart so true Ave Maria Come on and let me see ya I want to be the One you choose She wears a Neon Halo And incandescent skin And the sadness of the ages Is there within And her indifference is devastating Her legions Are stationed at her flank They embrace her honor and Hold her rank I am left to do the waiting Chorus Bridge At the top of this bar At the end of this world My mind tumbles and twirls As I praise you name Ave Ave Ave Maria x2
