Mercy Songtext

von Sarah McLachlan

Mercy - pure & simple
Longing - cold & hollow
With sweet breath you'd come to warm me
But I held on too hard to only a memory

You lie there on the swollen ground
Deserted in your heart
Still longing for what yesterdays lost
& for all that tomorrow might bring
& for all that tomorrow might bring

The passion lost - taken stolen
The dreams we had & we stoned - shattered broken
With kind words you'd come to soothe me
But I so blind & filled with feau
Would send you away from me

Theres no hope in regretting now
All the pain that we could not see
We both know what we wanted
& we took it believing it free
& we took it believing it free
