Early morn I was up long before dawn |
|
I watched you sleep |
|
I counted every beat of your heart |
|
Now we both know we'll never go back there again |
|
Guilty as charged that's all |
|
Fallen snow - cover me |
|
Wash me pure - Hold me tight |
|
What else is there left for you and for me? |
|
The life we once held on to caught in a riptide out to sea |
|
I left with innocent eyes to a nation so poor |
|
I felt humanity cry from the ravage of war |
|
I infiltrated the machine and it broke me in two |
|
I wish for amnesty now and I find it in you |
|
I make this vow |
|
The road to this place under a thundering sky |
|
It's a long walk to heaven |
|
Lord knows I've tried |
|
Just look around wind and snow and ice are all I see |
|
Save for you my queen |
|
Pounding rhythms |
|
Distant footsteps |
|
Echo fear |
|
And drive my pain |
|
I am crying out for love and for life eternal |
|
I am witness |
|
I've been purchased with blood |
|
So many souls will burn out |
|
The call requires an answer |
|
I've chased material gain it's the emptiest dream |
|
I've watched it turn back to dust and it don't mean a thing |
|
The spirit found its way in and it changed my whole life |
|
I'm offering you my hope with the gift of this light |
|
Please take my vow |
|
Let's pack away all our memories of home |
|
Never look back |
|
Certainly never return |
|
Begin anew you and I and snow and wind and ice |
|
Will you surrender all your all to me? |
|
And in the comfort of my arms both noble and strong |
|
I'll guide you safely through the storms |
|
I will make you my song |
|
Remaining steady and true for the rest of your life |
|
I offer you up my hand wanna make you my wife |
|
Please take this vow |
|
A passion purer than gold or the night's brightest star |
|
My love for you only grows |
|
It knows no earthly bounds |
|
The time is right for us now just believe what I say |
|
I take your hand in my hand |
|
And I promise you the world |
|
Promise you the world |
|
Promise you the world |
|
I make this vow |
|
Please take this vow |
