Lyrics
The Story
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.
In some sweet ways, it's simple
Sometimes that's all I can need
To trust someone else so I can get some sleep
All our heroes have deserted
Said we were nothing on our own
Well now that's all I am
O, can you tell me the story
Of all Your Glory?
Of Your rising again?
Cause I, I'm in love with the mystery
Of how our sad history
Can turn out for good
And the bitter man is angry
Angry man just thinks he's right
Too right to see mercy when he's standing in the light
We can shed tears over dying
We can rage and we can fight
But we cannot forget that
We were loved before we opened up our eyes
Such foolish pride
It's a shame to build our homes
With bricks of fear and cynical stones
There is nothing left to run from
There is nothing left but love
Can you tell me the story?
Can you tell me the story?
I need to hear it again
I need to hear it again
