Lyrics
If you want me to
I will lay down on my knees
If you need me to
I would swim straight across the sea
Just as long as there's
A fate that's forgiven me
Oh lord I'm blind
Help me, help me see
In the time that we were apart
I loved you with only half my heart
With the other half wide open
Like windows thrown open wide
Just blind enough not to catch all the tears you cried
If you want me to
I will lay down on my knees
If you need me to
I would swim straight across the sea
Just as long as there's
A fate that's forgiven me
Oh lord I'm blind
Forgive me, help me see
My soul, my heart, and my mind
You saved me in the nick of time
From a place I had forgotten
Where whiskey flows like wine
Arms outstretched I cry to you across the sky
Throw me to the wolves baby I'll be fine
To taste those lips so sweet like cherry wine
You led me through the darkness right on time
Let your light shine, baby
Let it shine, shine, shine
