A single stem
It's 6 a.m.
And foggy on the Hudson
Thorns adorn her baby grand
From Stoney End to London
Words unfold
Hair black as coal
Sweet blindness in her eyes
Stoned souls perform at Central Park
In masks of her disguise
A sign inside the times
It's a poison pen they're pushing
Lay your head to rest upon
The pale and purple cushions
Like Virginia to the lighthouse
See the songbirds in their cages
The rose of Laura Nyro
Shed its petals on the pages
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
Ticking clocks
The orthodox
Tell 'em Eli's coming
Italian girls in Market Square
Where Catholic fears are running
Beads of sweat
On Lafayette
Christmas Eve is melting
Dumb as rocks on Monterey
Down Gibson Street they're yelling
A sign inside the times
It's a poison pen they're pushing
Lay your head to rest upon
The pale and purple cushions
Like Virginia to the lighthouse
See the songbirds in their cages
The rose of Laura Nyro
Shed its petals on the pages
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
A single stem
It's 6 a.m.
And foggy on the Hudson
Thorns adorn her baby grand
From Stoney End to London
Words unfold
Hair black as coal
Sweet blindness in her eyes
Stoned souls perform at Central Park
In masks of her disguise
A sign inside the times
It's a poison pen they're pushing
Lay your head to rest upon
The pale and purple cushion
Like Virginia to the lighthouse
See the songbirds in their cages
The rose of Laura Nyro
Shed its petals on the pages
The rose of Laura Nyro
Shed its petals on the pages
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
Better hide your heart girl
Eli's coming
Eli's coming
Eli oh Eli's a-coming
Eli's a-coming yeah
Eli's coming
Eli's a-coming yeah yeah yeah
Eli's a-coming
Eli's a-coming oh
Eli's a-coming
Eli's a-coming I said Eli Eli
Eli's coming
You better hide your heart girl
Hide your heart girl
Eli's coming yeah
