About a fall from grace
A change of heart a rise to glory
A lesson learned, a doorway I went through
Now all I know is I was born to lead and not to follow
But the places that I led turned out to be so hollow
And in the end I just turned out to be a fool
Justification would make me shine
My performance a work of art
All I ever wanted was to walk that line
But I jumped across and broke Your heart
For all I've learned the days I lived it were so rare
The dust of innocence I scattered who knows where
And when I turned my back on You, You stood right there
And You never left me, no You never left me
These scars I have, I know they are here to remind me
That everything I've said and done I can leave far behind me
The door is shut and I shall never more return
Everybody says that Your childhood dies
A little bit more every day
But all around me are mercy's eyes
And they'll keep me close to You I pray
For all I've learned the days I lived it were so rare
The dust of innocence I scattered who knows where
And when I turned my back on You, You stood right there
And You never left me, no You never left me
You know I came to love You as a young man many years ago
But now You've brought me out of harm
And I feel just like a baby in Your arms
For all I've learned the days I lived it were so rare
The dust of innocence I scattered who knows where
And when I turned my back on You, You stood right there
And You never left me, no You never left me
You never never never, no You never left me
Come on and gather round and listen to my story About a fall from grace A change of heart a rise to glory A lesson learned, a doorway I went through Now all I know is I was born to lead and not to follow But the places that I led turned out to be so hollow And in the end I just turned out to be a fool Justification would make me shine My performance a work of art All I ever wanted was to walk that line But I jumped across and broke Your heart For all I've learned the days I lived it were so rare The dust of innocence I scattered who knows where And when I turned my back on You, You stood right there And You never left me, no You never left me These scars I have, I know they are here to remind me That everything I've said and done I can leave far behind me The door is shut and I shall never more return Everybody says that Your childhood dies A little bit more every day But all around me are mercy's eyes And they'll keep me close to You I pray For all I've learned the days I lived it were so rare The dust of innocence I scattered who knows where And when I turned my back on You, You stood right there And You never left me, no You never left me You know I came to love You as a young man many years ago But now You've brought me out of harm And I feel just like a baby in Your arms For all I've learned the days I lived it were so rare The dust of innocence I scattered who knows where And when I turned my back on You, You stood right there And You never left me, no You never left me You never never never, no You never left me Explain Request ×
