Odetta

You were always tryna fill the void of my brother
 ♪
 Habits so old, tryna find that something new
 Never stand in the arms of a lover
 Seeking darkness wherever light may shine through
 Along came a morning of another
 Blind sided by your sweet surprise
 ♪
 Odetta, don't you know
 That you saved this young man's soul?
 He can watch you getting wise
 And you can watch him growing old
 You're always searching for destruction
 Now you bear the scars of a path in which you chose
 It takes a brave and a stronger kind of woman
 To follow where such a broken man can go
 Along came a morning of another
 Blind sided by your sweet surprise
 ♪
 Odetta, don't you know
 That you saved this young man's soul?
 He can watch you getting wise
 And you can watch him growing old
 You got to hold him close
 Odetta, don't you ever let him go
 Might be a long wild road
 Although we may need you there
 We need you now more than ever
 Odetta, don't you know
 That you saved this young man's soul?
 He can watch you getting wise
 And you can watch him growing old
