Sufjan Stevens – Vito's Ordination Song lyrics

Album: Greetings From Michigan The Great Lake State

i always knew you in your mother's arms
i have called her name i've an idea placed in your mind
to be a better man, i've made a crown for you and put it in your room
and when the bright groom comes there will be noise.
and there will be glad, and the perfect man.

and when you are able i know the words, i know the sounds
before you write it down, when you wear your clothes, i wear them too, i wear your shoes.
and the jacket too i always knew you in your mother's arms
i have called you son. i've made amends between father and son.
with you haven't won rest in my arms, sleep in my bed, there's a design
to what i did and said rest in my arms, sleep in my bed, there's a design
