I know that fan is movin´ air I can see it in your hair But I can´t bear to breathe it in somehow I´ll rise and fall with you ´Cause you can´t fail me now
I´ll rise and fall with you ´Cause you can´t fail me now
Salty sweet upon my mouth And dark throws sparks against my house The stain of love´s a smudge upon my brow But you see through me And you can´t fail me now You see right through me You can´t fail me now Bit off more than I can chew Somethin´ that I tend to do But fewer words are what we need and how You bite my tongue You can´t fail me now I rant and rail Oh, you can´t fail me now
I lost the thread among the vines And hung myself in storylines That tell a tale I never would allow God knows the name of every bird It fills my mind like angry words That you know all my secret heart avows
We´re taught to love the worst of us Mercy more than life but, trust me Mercy´s just a warnin´ shot across the bow I live for yours And you can´t fail me now I live for your mercy
