Verse 1 --------- Love is patient love is kind You love me and You don't mind That I'm not so perfect You know I'm undefined My actions fail to show But in spite of me you seem to know That I only want to love you I don't mean to be so cold Pre-Chorus ------------- My words have cut You to the bone But my heart still longs for you alone Chorus -------- Show me love, show me life, give me time Because I want to shine in spite of who I am Show me love, give me time Because I want to shine in spite of who I am Verse 2 --------- I know by you I am justified But still I can't find the line Where my works will match my faith And I'll lay myself aside My actions fail to show But in spite of me you seem to know That I only want to love you I can't make it on my own When my mind denies the love I know My life sends nails through your bone Chorus -------- Show me love, show me life, give me time Because I want to shine in spite of who I am Show me love, give me time Because I want to shine in spite of who I am Bridge -------- I can't define Your love but I need it I need it yeah I can't give enough of me but You want it so I'll give it I don't deserve Your love but I have it, I have it now Chorus -------- Show me love, show me life, give me time Because I want to shine in spite of who I am Show me love, give me time Because I want to shine Chorus -------- Show me love, show me life, give me time Because I want to shine Show me love, show me life, wait, give me time Because I want to shine in spite of who I am
