She said it wasn’t love we had Just two broken souls holding
on
Said we found each other wounded
In the smoke after the storm
Now I’m staring at the water
By this quiet, lonely pond
Asking God how something sacred
Could go so far gone
We had bells that rang like heaven
We had angels in the room
Now the silence sits between us
Like a church without a tune
And I keep chasing,
chasing
Every finish line’s another mile
I keep praying, praying
Just to see your heart crack a smile I’ve been down on
my knees
Trying to pay for my crimes
Lord, show me there’s hope
’Cause I’m running out of mine
I said sorry till it broke me But sorry don’t undo the
pain
And making amends sounds empty When I’m the man who lit the
flame
I brought Birkin, I brought Chanel
Like gifts could raise the dead But diamonds don’t restore the love
That disappeared from your chest
Addiction took me under
Indifference closed the door Now every time I reach for you You
drift a little more And I keep chasing,
chasing
Every finish line’s another mile
I keep praying, praying
Just to see your heart crack a smile I’ve been down on
my knees Trying to pay for my crimes
Lord, show me there’s hope
’Cause I’m running out of mine
There’s a dungeon in your sorrow
Deeper than my sin
And I can’t seem to reach you
No matter how far I go in
So maybe love means letting go When holding on brings pain Maybe
angels get to carry
What my hands could not sustain
If I have to set you free now
To the higher worlds above
I’ll do it with my heart broke open
Still believing it was love
’Cause down here we keep on bleeding From a wound that won’t
grow still I keep trying,
you keep running But I swear I always will And I keep
chasing, chasing
Every finish line’s another mile
I keep praying, praying
Just to see your heart crack a smile I’ve been down on
my knees Trying to pay for my crimes Lord,
show me there’s hope ’Cause I’m running out of mine Lord,
show me there’s hope ’Cause I’m running out of mine
