Caedmons Call Love Alone Lyrics

Love Alone Lyrics

No one would love me 

if they knew all the things I hide 

My words
fall to the floor 

As tears drip through the telephone line 



And the hands Ive seen raised to the sky 

Not waving but drowning all
this time 

I'll try to build an ark that they need 

To float to you
upon the crystal sea 



*Give me your hand to hold 

'Cause I
can't stand to love alone

And love alone is not enough to hold us up 

We've got to touch your robe 

So swing your robe down low 

Swing
your robe down low 



The prince of despair's been beaten 

But
the loser still fights 

Death's on a long leash 

Stealing my
friends to the night 



And everyone cries for the innocent

You say to love the guilty too 

And I'm surrounded by suffering and
sickness

So I'm working tearing back the roof 



Repeat *



And the pain of the world is a burden 

And it's my cross to
bear 

And I stumble under all the weight

I know you're Simon
standing there 

And I know you're standing there
