Oh I wish I could be
Touched by the hem of his garment
To be proud has never been

So mean, so stern, so cruel
Oh I wish I could be
Touched by the hem of his garment

Oh, I´ve come a long way
To touch the hem of his garment

And anger should be
The tool of a clown or a fool, you see
And why should such spite and such pain
Hang between you and me
When love should be
A queen on her throne
Looking after her own
I wish I could be
Touched by the hem of his garment

Two chairs at this table

One bed in this house
Seriously, I think we could be,
Touched by the hem of his garment

Oh, I´ve come a long way
To touch the hem of his garment
