I try to find the words to say To convince you this world's worth your stay
Street signs to mark the way Hopefully I'll get out of this city one day
Questions can loom like dreams Tears in the night that make us scream
A weaker heart would've called it quits Honey, I admire your courage and wit
And ain't it just a tragedy Or maybe a complex mystery
That broken hearts like ours would meet Honey, you've turned my bitter to sweet
Grab your pen and write a line Of exactly how you feel inside
See if it doesn't change As seasons pass and time goes by
Don't worry love, I'm not letting go I'm still trying to find a place called home
There's no other girl that's on my mind Just the question if living's worth our time
And I promise I'll give you songs to sing To your kids, kids, and their babies
I don't care to have a legacy Just don't let me mess up your only three
I guess what I'm trying to say Is that I'll love you in my own way
The darkest parts I won't withhold How can love be warm if the heart's not cold
Jesus, keep me in perfect peace I'm trying hard to keep my mind on thee
I don't think you blame the questioning soul If that breaks your heart then just take us home
And on your final coming day Will the blood of men fill the streets
Will you see what's in our deepest heart Or will you simply just sigh and weep
Or will you simply just sigh and weep
