I was a child when first I learned
Of Your great kindness and Your grace
When first I heard of all the love You had prepared for me
And now I’m grown and shadows lengthen
Unanswered questions fill my days
Prayers go on, Your name a whisper on my thirsty lips
I still believe oh, I still believe it, Your promises are true
The same yesterday, today and forever

I have my answer, you are never coming back
I'll never see you again
I can't believe I held you in the palm of my hand
And let you slip from my fingers, well
How do you say goodbye to love
When it's the love of a lifetime
Just how am I supposed to say
Goodbye, my love

I don't know, maybe I should just have left well enough alone
I'd been whistling a different tune and be almost fully grown
But I had a stick
And there was a fire
Who can resist a naked flame?
I'd probably do the same again
When I get my
Second chance

I’ve used every single word I know
I’ve searched everywhere, both high and low
I’ve raised my voice in the silence
And I’ve been quiet in violence
I’ve made promises I could not keep
I’ve swum out too far, been in too deep
I stopped walking and sat down
I’ve refused just to go on

I wake up fuming in the middle of the night
With all the words I should have said in broad daylight
All the clever come backs and sharp retorts
They're locked in my armoury of my second thoughts
If I could have known then what I know by now
I'd be the big landowner renting out the plough
Not scrambling through a small circumstance
Coming onto lady luck and happenstance
