You said go and sin no more
Though my eyes could not meet Yours
I started running the third
time the rooster crowed
You threw a party just for me
Though I squandered everything
I was blinded in the
middle of the road
Climbed up in a tree to see You
Swallowed by the sea to flee You
Sold You for a little
silver and a kiss
Killed a man to love his woman
Burned a bridge back to Your garden
Hung beside You while you
took Your final breath
You've been loving me
since time began
You're behind my
every second chance
I love You
I'm trying to
Love You more
I'm ready
Please help me
Love You more
I keep thinking there's a limit
Sure I must be getting near it
When I've used up
every pardon and regret
But You promise there is freedom
Gathered up the broken pieces
Scattered them as far as
East is from the West
You've been loving me
since time began
You're behind my
every second chance
I love You
I'm trying to
Love You more
I'm ready
Please help me
Love You more
With all the sand that
fills the hourglass
With every breath between
my first and last
I love You
I'm trying to
Love You more
I'm ready
Please help me
Love You more
