I carry my mistakes And she carries them too When all I see are bruises black She shows me the blue
I remember the tears in the morning The dread of the veil gently falling to the floor
I'll never know divinity So inadequately I write In meter and verse She believes in God But I believe in her
When my ship has run it's course She steers me back out to the sea She won't let me run aground
I've seen the storms she's met, I've seen the tears in secret shed She sees me as an eagle though I am just a crow She sees me as a diamond though I'm just a weathered stone
I'll never know divinity, so inadequately I write In meter and verse She believes in God, but I believe in her
I stole a glimpse of you in pain And I'll take the image to my grave You look towards the heavens, and I look up to you I kneel because there are no words, an act will have to do
She believes in God but I believe in... ...no divinity So inadequately I write In meter and verse She believes in God, but I believe in her.
