Caedmons Call - Love Along 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 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

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

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
