Daniel Amos - The Uses Of Adversity lyrics

My heartbeat is the pounding of your iron hand breaking me Who knows where this shattering love is taking me ‘Cause you're much too small if you're not a Mystery So don't send me rain if I bloom in drought No don't send me certainty if somehow it's best for me to doubt I found your handprints on the pages of history I said your ways are past finding out
