Lyrics
Salvation Jam
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.
I've been wondering why nothing ever gets to me
I've been hearing nothing now for far too long
I can hardly stand to sit for one more word
I've been counting seconds 'til I can leave
Won't you let me, let me leave
I've been thinking that maybe this is all my fault
Maybe thinking is the thing that got me where I am now
Let my mind wander to the desert where it's all alone
Can I hold on to what I know?
Sometimes, I don't think so
Pull back the curtain to find that I am not what you thought
And see that what I think is not what you taught
I know all the words I play in all the right keys
Don't be surprised when you find out that you've been deceived
Lately I've grown sick of what's been going on
It seems that I lose control every time I'm alone
And I won't talk about anything with anyone
Even though I know there's nothing I can do
But the question is can I depend on you?
Pull back the curtain to find that I am not what you thought
And see that what I think is not what you taught
I know all the words I play in all the right keys
Don't be surprised when you find out that you've been deceived
Oh Lord, send me back again
When love was all I'd need
Oh Lord, send it back again
The joy of my salvation
Oh Lord, send me back again
To a day when I was free
Oh, Lord, if only I knew then
Once you start you can't never stop
