I watch the film Elmar Gantry last night about a conman/preacher who joins a Revival and falls head over heals with the leader of the revival. This song is inspired by that
Lyrics
I saw you at the midnight revival That circus smelt like canvas and polyvinyl You were waiving around an NKJ Bible But you were on fire with the spirit of the Lord
I used to love my drinking but now I'm drunk with love You're the strongest spirit that I know of
I don't know who I'm fooling but I know that you're no fool I wanna tear off your wings let my spirit move you
I'm the wrong man At the right time to Love you
I'm the wrong man but come with me tonight
I'll give up my whiskey I'll give up my sin come with me let our lives begin, tonight

I haven't seen this film, but your telling of the story is very clear and evocative. So sweet and enjoyable. Thank you.

Great film and a quirky way to respond to the prompt, I like it! "I want to tear off your angel wings / let my spirit move you" is a darkly comic twist. Nice write! 😊

I like the staccato piano backing for your gentle vocals. Wonderful use of concise lines and I love the hook and how well you develop it. Lovely gentle vocals.
