Hands Held High

歌詞

All my life I've been searching Face by Face and Day by Day I've walked a hundred shorelines But all my footsteps Have been taken by the waves I've trusted, and I've loved I've reached out time and time again I've lied and I've betrayed I've whispered evil things to the wind Everything I've seen or felt or heard Has left me with no purpose or meaning or reason But if I were to curse God and die That would be the ultimate treason Though I feel so dead Even Though I'm Alive It's the things that I have done That I could never deny I met a man the other day As he pulled me aside He told me slowly With a fire burning in his eyes I know who you are I know where you've been I've walked the same shorelines I've felt the same winds I've lied and betrayed And I've said evil things I've put my trust in the world And I know what it brings I remember my wife And the love that we've shared And the smile on her face And the smell of her hair On the day that we met I was dead inside But then she spoke these words Fire burning in her eyes "The Lord knows who you are And he knows where you've been He keeps an eye on the shores And His ears to the wind" When you make your bed in pit of hell He'll stay by your side and he'll love you still Well it's been five years that she's been gone I've given you her words that you might carry them on This is Love! This is Love! THIS IS LOVE! THIS IS LOVE! THIS IS LOVE!
