Griffin, Patty - Moses Lyrics
Diamonds, roses,I need Moses
To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness
But I need a little place in the sun sometimes Or I think I will die
Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer
So I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here
With an empty apartment and a best friend who is queer
Everytime I see him he smiles
And he tells me how well he's walking these miles
But he never ever asks a single thing about me
If I die, he'd hear about it eventually
Diamonds, roses, I need Moses
To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
Everywhere is somewhere And nowhere is near
Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer
So I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here
Go home to an empty apartment and call a best friend who is a queer
Diamonds, roses, I need Moses
to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain

Griffin, Patty Moses Comments
Lost my mother and father to illness after taking care of them and now I'm living in the house I grew up in - been 6 months but I am living alone with ghosts... and this song is holding me up. I certainly need Moses... and patty!
her best song, too good.
Simply WOW!
If I died he'd hear about it eventually.... I love Patty.
I love this!!!!!
Still an amazing album in 2017...
Still amazing in 2019
She is like a piece of me. I've been listening to her since I was 11 (over half my life)...my Mama loved her and I grew very attached. Now when I hear her I go back through the years and smile. I love this woman!
I LOVE the song she sings "Your Not Alone" I heard like two verses in this movie I watched today called "Sister" the brother takes in his younger sister who is on Ritalin an anti depressants an takes her off these drugs which were ruining her life, just like the drug Ritalin did to my son.. @ 6 yrs old my son was put on that crap an now he is passed away @ the age of 31 yrs young.. He was a drug addict at 6 yrs old.. SO Sad...
Patty can I be your best friend cause I too am queer and I'd ask how u doin'
I found Patty from being a huge Dixie Chicks fan. They covered her songs and did a great job. Patty is a beautiful song writer and her voice is stunning. This album is so damn near perfect!
Tyler Heck I found the Dixie Chicks after falling in love with Patty Griffin
Amazing. Thanks for this.
many blessings ,
everywhere is somewhere and nowhere is near
yet everything remains within
in the divine christ light
hold the space, hold the light
then be at peace

Another absolutely beautiful song by the lovely and amazing Patty Griffin. Thank you!
This is one of her best CD's along with "Children Running Through It"
@***** Yes I think your are right, I stand corrected.
What a voice, what a song.
I saw a little red dog getting dumped out on the highway (I-10) from L.A. to Phx. I was listening to this song when I saw and rescued him. Reilly MOSES Harris Crawford was my best friend for 11 years.
Jennifer Harris Crawford beautiful
Beautiful story. You are so fortunate.
luv you patty!! .. simply beautiful
I must have listened to this song a million times over the years and it never ceases to give me goosebumps.
The late great radio station WFNX is where I heard this song for the first time in 2001. Have been a diehard PG fan ever since.

Boston Phoenix Radio! Ah, the good old days!
One of my favorite Patty Griffin songs. the lyrics are amazing, just as she is.
The first time I ever heard this song years ago and was left slackjawed as soon as she hit the first note! I cannot count the number of people I have bought this CD for and their lives are better because of Patty Griffin!!!!
Thanks for uploading, coulnt find this anywhere.
