To meet me is to dare into the darkness | |
If you are devoted to a dream | |
Go and light the lantern | |
Leave your family abandoned | |
Meet me by the shallow of the stream | |
Oh, meet me by the shallow of the stream | |
To ask me is to love with hesitation | |
My answer is the same as it has been | |
Here is my affection | |
No conditions and no questions | |
Open up the door and let me in | |
Oh, open up the door and let me in | |
To trust me is to travel past the towers | |
Those that make it back from here are few | |
It takes all of your devotion | |
To have courage for a moment | |
The world has bested better men than you | |
Oh, the world has bested better men than you | |
To love me is to sit upon the mountain | |
Every step is harder than the last | |
But to find the step above it | |
Is to triumph, is to summit | |
Taste the frigid water from the tap | |
Oh, taste the frigid water from the tap | |
To curse me for the life we left behind us | |
Is to misremember what was God’s | |
For from the vacant cradle | |
To the empty kitchen table | |
Show me what was precious; it was lost | |
Oh, I’m sorry that I said it, and I know it might be reckless | |
Oh, show me what was precious; it was lost |
To meet me is to dare into the darkness | |
If you are devoted to a dream | |
Go and light the lantern | |
Leave your family abandoned | |
Meet me by the shallow of the stream | |
Oh, meet me by the shallow of the stream | |
To ask me is to love with hesitation | |
My answer is the same as it has been | |
Here is my affection | |
No conditions and no questions | |
Open up the door and let me in | |
Oh, open up the door and let me in | |
To trust me is to travel past the towers | |
Those that make it back from here are few | |
It takes all of your devotion | |
To have courage for a moment | |
The world has bested better men than you | |
Oh, the world has bested better men than you | |
To love me is to sit upon the mountain | |
Every step is harder than the last | |
But to find the step above it | |
Is to triumph, is to summit | |
Taste the frigid water from the tap | |
Oh, taste the frigid water from the tap | |
To curse me for the life we left behind us | |
Is to misremember what was God' s | |
For from the vacant cradle | |
To the empty kitchen table | |
Show me what was precious it was lost | |
Oh, I' m sorry that I said it, and I know it might be reckless | |
Oh, show me what was precious it was lost |
To meet me is to dare into the darkness | |
If you are devoted to a dream | |
Go and light the lantern | |
Leave your family abandoned | |
Meet me by the shallow of the stream | |
Oh, meet me by the shallow of the stream | |
To ask me is to love with hesitation | |
