Dan Weller - Meter & Verse lyrics

[Verse 1] I carry my mistakes And she carries them too When all I see are bruises black She shows me the blue [Hook 1] I remember the tears in the morning The dread of the veil gently falling to the floor [Chorus] 'Cause I'll never know divinity So inadequately I write In meter and verse She believes in God But I believe in her [Verse 2] When my ship has run its course She steers me back out to the sea She won't let me run aground I've seen the storms she's met I've seen the tears in secret shed [Hook 2] She sees me as an eagle, though I am just a crow She sees me as a diamon Though I'm just a weathered stone [Chorus] [Bridge] I stole a glimpse of you in pain I'll take the image to my grave You look towards the heavens, and I look up to you I kneel because there are no words An act will have to do She believes in God, but I believe in... [Altered Chorus] No divinity So inadequately I write In meter and verse She believes in God But I believe in her
