In My Life - I Once Bled Out Remorse
I’m fearless to say that I used to bleed out remorse
Before I met you…of course
I used to cry myself asleep because I felt so alone
Before I met you, I was on my own
V.7: Give and you shall receive
Ask and you shall be given…give, don’t grieve…
Grieve no more – we’ll be riding on a serene shore
Hasn’t God promised us a wonderful afterlife?
Hasn’t God promised that there is something far greater
than this life?
I must repay you for everything you have done to me
Now, I live life to the fullest –
I’m unafraid of what lies ahead
I’m sheltered by the seething storm and its harmful,
shocking aftershocks
*chorus* I was never that confident enough to say that you
saved me from the death’s snare
But, I must tell you someday, so that you’re aware
That you are someone special in my heart – I can’t conceal
the truth of what I feel for you deep inside
In my life, in my life, I’m still stuck in the solitary cave
In my life, in my life, I thought I wasn’t at all brave
I was caved in by the cravings of my heart
The darkness once ripped me apart
But, you repaired me and I recovered pretty fast
So, please listen up! I must tell you about my good and bad
past
Fear doesn’t exist here
Get a grip on the rope of hope
All anxieties are gone
We dream on like daydreamers, awaiting another great,
delight-illuminated dawn
I’ll love you until my life is no more
I’ll love you, even if you have strayed into the darkness
I love you from the bottom of the ocean to the heavens
above
I’ll love you – I won’t get over you and you’re my love at
first sight – you were and still are a dazzling, surreal sight –
you kiss me and I’m overwhelmed with passionate bliss
I will love you if you would step out of the abyss with me
I’m fearless to say that I used to bleed out remorse
Before I met you…of course
I used to cry myself asleep because I felt so alone
Before I met you, I was on my own
V.8 I need you, I want you, I grieve with you
I implore you to stay with me
I crave you…I bleed for you…I desire you to come back to me
someday…or I’ll be a darker shade of blue
You are precious to me and you’ll always be
You’ll always be
You’ll always be a peace-abiding angel to me
*chorus* I never had the voice to declare that you saved me
from the death’s snare with evidence – no one would care
unless I mention them and praise them – now, that would
be considered fair these days – these people are giving me
vacant, who-cares stares
But, I must tell you someday, so that you’re aware
That you are someone special in my heart – I can’t conceal
the truth of what I feel for you deep inside
In my life, in my life, I’m still stuck in the solitary cave
In my life, in my life, I thought I wasn’t at all brave
I was caved in by the cravings of my heart
The darkness once ripped me apart
But, you repaired me and I recovered pretty fast
So, please listen up! I must tell you about my good and bad
past
Fear doesn’t exist here
Get a grip on the rope of hope
All anxieties are gone
We dream on like daydreamers, awaiting another great,
delight-illuminated dawn
I’ll love you until my life is no more
I once bled out remorse until I saw you confidently soar
