Call Caedmon`s Love Alone Lyrics

Love Alone Lyrics

no one will love me if they knew all the things i hide
My words fell to the
floor as tears drip to the telephone line

And the hands I've seen raised
to the sky
not waving but drowning all this time
I'll try to build the ark
that they need
To float to you upon the crystal
sea

(Chorus)

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 rope
So swing your rope down low
Swing your rope down
low

Prince of despair's been beaten, you know
but the losers still
fight
death's on a long leash stealing
my friends to the night

And
everyone cries for innocence
But you say to love the guilty too
And I'm
surrounded by suffering and sickness
So I'm working tearing back the roof

(repeat chorus)

And the pain of the world is a burden
And its my
cross to bear
And I stumble under all the weight
I know your Simon
standing there
And I know you're standing there
(repeat chorus)
