Fall/Back

I swear that I’ve been here before on this same couch with this

     same disregard

Baby, this is where darkness lives and it’ll catch you off your guard

I hope you can believe there’s more to me than what you see

And that we have no business here even though you don’t agree

 

Until we fall back onto the Great I Am

We’ll use up all we got, our love we will exhaust

Until we learn to trust in the God of Abraham

And give up what we got, all will be lost

 

Something here is wrong, I can hear it in your voice

But crying at home by yourself is your method of choice

Over the phone, just a couple miles away, is right where I belong

Do you think that you were happier before I came along?

 

Until we fall back onto the Great I Am

We’ll use up all we got, our love we will exhaust

Until we learn to trust in the God of Abraham

And give up what we got, all will be lost

 

I want to love you well I want to do this right

During the day it’s so easy but it gets hard at night

I hope you can believe that I can’t go on at this rate

Something’s gotta change, I just hope it’s not too late

 

Until we fall back onto the Great I Am

We’ll burn up all we got, our love we will exhaust

Until we learn to trust in the God of Abraham

And give up what we got, all will be lost

                                                                                             

 

What’cha gonna do with your love

What’cha gonna let go of

It’s time to make your choice right now

 

What’cha gonna do about this

You know it’s never just one kiss

Don’t lie to me, don’t lie to yourself

 

I feel like everything is wrong
