The Thorn In My Side Is Gone Lyrics

The thorn in my side is gone
It was too sharp for the laws of the world
Like my need for you, I know
It doesn't register on the scale of the worldWhen they talk about strength they usually mean
The way that blood sticks to the hand
When they talk about strength I know
They don't mean a touch that only love understandsAnd I'll never leave you, I'll never leave you, love never lies
I swear you could see me, I swear you could see me
If you could open your eyesThere's a beast in the trees
As old as some dog in my heart
Step by step, I begged it to leave me with something
'Cause my fear was like a wind
Tearing the song from my breathAnd I'll never leave you, I'll never leave you, love never lies
I swear you could see me, I swear you could see me
If you could open your eyes, if you could open your eyes
If you could open your eyes, if you could open your eyes
