Sufjan Stevens — Vitos Ordination Song

[Verse 1] I always knew you In your mother's arms I have called your name I've an idea Placed in your mind To be a better man I've made a crown for you Put it in your room And when the bridegroom comes There will be noise There will be glad And a perfect bed [Verse 2] And when you write a poem 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 your jacket too I always knew you In your mother's arms I have called you son I've made amends Between father and son Or if you haven't one [Verse 3] 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 To what I did and said 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 To what I did and said [Bridge] 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 To what I did and said [Outro] 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 To what I did and said 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 To what I did and said 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 To what I did and said 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 To what I did and said
