I guess that was you
Who put your faith in me
I should've told you
Right then I was not as
Strong As I seem
With trembling conviction
I fooled us both
I sold you a blindfold
Out of what we loved most
When two worlds collide
They both become real
It brings strength to conviction
The poet milks the fear
With eloquent defences
And a desparate bad faith
We confuse decisions
And don't want to make
And I knelt down in prayer
Just like I was taught
That childish belief
It still hopes more than not
And I knelt down in prayer
And I left you there
And I went to the Lord and
I've been lonely for years
Deperate for reasons
That just don't exist
We get so createive
We plead, we insist
An obsintate presence
Yeah and second to none
A life that's made desolate
So it can go on
And I knelt down in prayer
Just like I was taught
That childish belief
It still hopes more than not
And I knelt down in prayer
And I left you there
And I went to the Lord and
I've been lonely for years
And I knelt down in prayer
Just like I was taught
That childish belief
It don't ask for a lot
And I knelt down in prayer
And I left you there
And I went to the Lord and
I've been lonely for years
