Jesus Almost Got Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a keyhole in my can of beer
And there's an eye behind it
Sizing me up and sizing me down
My hangover's becoming a thorny crown
And dawn is coming over me
Love is cruel
Love is truly absurd
Jesus almost got me
I don't know how many prayers he overheard
There's no relief in the garden
The morning birds are like nerves
The hand of the man that stilled the water
The hand that calmed the sea
Is pouring a drink for me
Love is cruel
Love is truly absurd
Jesus almost got me
I don't know how many prayers he overheard
