Eyes are what you close When you can't bear to watch her go And pride is what it costs When you pay the price for what you've lost And knees are where you land When you haven't got the strength to stand And hands are what you fold When you pray to God, just to let her go To rise above the pain, you've gotta be on your knees Doors are what you slam When you can't open them again Sleep is what you lose When a memory still lays down with you And knees are where you land When you haven't got the strength to stand And hands are what you fold When you pray to God, just to let her go To rise above the pain, you've gotta be on your knees Knees are where you land When you haven't got the strength to stand And hands are what you fold When you pray to God, just to let her go On the road that leads to healing You find me on my knees
