Silently, you come to me in apology unspoken Broken and with eyes cast down, without a sound It’s the very thing we love that brings All the greatest pain upon us But seventy times seven is how many times That’s how many times love forgives
Built of something not of brick and mortar Laid in stones of flesh and set before her With a breath its structure bent and pulled to nothing
Tasting bile and choking back this anger Bound and gagging on my swallowed pride She broke her promise Now I've broken mine just to keep her
Did you ever consider what this meant to me? Did you ever consider me at all? One chance to learn this dance is not enough God knows I've stumbled too
The want of something drawn of truth and fashioned After forms of fire, forged in passion Given over to a blood alive and rushing
Separation eats the time and distance Disregarding any promise made She broke my heart and now I’m sparing hers Just to keep her
Did you ever consider all you mean to me? Did you ever consider me at all? One night to set things right is not enough Time knows I've waited to
Silently, you come to me in apology unspoken Broken and with eyes cast down, without a sound It’s the very thing we love that brings All the greatest pain upon us But seventy times seven is how many times That’s how many times love forgives
Did you ever consider what this did to us? Did you ever consider us at all? One night to set things right is not enough God knows we've wanted to
Silently, you come to me in apology unspoken Broken and with eyes cast down, without a sound It’s the very thing we love that brings All the greatest pain upon us But seventy times seven is how many times That’s how many times love forgives
