Jim St. James

Lyrics

YOU - WASHED YOUR HANDS OF THE PAIN
I - SAVED THE RINSE WHILE IT RAINED
FOR MY UNION OF ONE
THO LOVE HAD JUST BEGUN
YOU WENT AWAY

PURGED - BY THE FEAR THAT YOU'VE GONE
URGED BY THE POWER OF SONG
WHAT SHOULD I DO
I'M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU
BUT YOU'RE NOT HERE WITH ME

SO HERE I STAND
ON THIS SHIFTING SAND
I ALWAYS KNEW THAT YOU WOULD SOAR
THO I NEVER THOUGHT YOU'D FLY THIS FAR

SEARED - BY A BURNING WITHIN
OH MY GOD
HOW HARD THIS HAS BEEN
LIVING SO LOW
LIKE A LOAN BARITONE
DOWN ON MY KNEES

SHOULD I WAIT FOR TOMORROW
WILL IT EVER COME
IS THERE STRENGTH LEFT TO BORROW
OR IS THERE NONE

SO HERE I STAND
ON THIS SHIFTING SAND
I ALWAYS KNEW THAT YOU WOULD SOAR
THO I NEVER THOUGHT YOU'D FLY THIS FAR
