Afters - The Way You Are lyrics

Until You came I was just the same

As everybody else

Whoever saw the light and turned away

You love me now

You loved me then

And every now and then

You show me how it would be if I'd gone the other way

After all this time I've come to find my soul's fragility

But You've rectified my frailty by your strength

It's like the sun swallowed up by the earth

Like atomics bombs in reverse

As if a glass could contain the sea

That's the way You are in me

That's the way You are

Now here I stand looking back

To the way things used to be

But I will never be alone again

You're with me

And now I see

What it means to me

To be a part of such a mystery

After all this time I've come to find my soul's fragility

But You've rectified my frailty by your strength

It's like the sun swallowed up by the earth

Like atomics bombs in reverse

As if a glass could contain the sea

That's the way You are in me

That's the way You are
