V1
I used to look at you through squinted eyes of seething rage
I used to look at you through stinging tears of endless pain
I trailed behind and placed my feet in each one of your steps
I watched your face for approval but found only regret
You gave yourself so freely away to everyone else
I wanted you gone
Out of my life
I wanted you to love me
Chorus:
Sometimes
We have to give up on love to find it
Sometimes
We have to leave it all behind
Sometimes
Forgiveness leads to a better ending
Sometimes
We just have to let go…. Sometimes
V2
I watched you when you said you found the Galilean man
In the waters you went down, I watched you come out again
And so I trailed behind, took each step keeping up with you
Before the river mud dried from your shoes you killed the truth
You gave yourself so freely away to everyone else
I wanted you gone
Out of my life
I wanted you to love me
Chorus
Bridge:
Here I stand from the waters arisen
Will I be the man that I saw in you
Or will I rise up and learn forgiving
And just let go…. Just let go….
Chorus (x 2)
