I Believed You, William Blake

Lyrics

Have you seen my husband?
 You'd know him, if you had
 He's known around old London Town
 Most people think he's mad
 My husband he talks with angels
 And with spirits that he can see
 He passes time with the divine
 But not so much with me
 But I held him when he faltered
 When earth and faith did shake
 And on my grave the words will say
 "I believed you, William Blake"
 We scraped by in the shadows
 Sown with pity and with scorn
 The great and good they never could
 Recognize a prophet born
 With poetry and engravings
 He presented Paradise
 He revealed to them a Jerusalem
 They would not recognize
 But I held him when he faltered
 When earth and faith did shake
 And on my grave the words will say
 "I believed you, William Blake"
 ♪
 Mr. William Blake
 There's one promise you must make
 
 Dear William, if you're right
 About life on the other side, about Paradise
 Then you must promise me
 That you won't leave me when you leave
 This world that didn't believe
 Be a comfort to your wife
 She gave you up her one and only certain life
 Don't you leave me in my grave
 I believed you William Blake
 I'll be with you, damned or saved
 Don't you leave me in my grave
 I believed you William Blake
