Alice Kristiansen Religion Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never busy on a Sunday
Never stepped a foot in a church
But I loved the painted windows
And the music I overheard
Wasn't searching for something
Didn't need to be saved
Started paying attention
And I found God in the way

[Pre-Chorus]
The sun always comes in the morning
No matter how dark the night's been
And it all seemed dawn without warning
How holy this little life is
[Chorus]
Guess I found religion sitting in the kitchen
Oh, Lord, I've been waiting so long

[Post-Chorus]
I don't need a place to worship
I don't need a real big purpose
I can sit here, watching flowers grow
Just to know, the bees have a place to go

[Pre-Chorus]
When the sun shines in the morning After the darkness of the night
And the dawn seems to come without warning
Everything bathed in pink light

[Chorus]
Guess I found religion sitting in the kitchen
Oh, Lord, I've been waiting so long
Oh, Lord, I've been waiting so long

[Bridge]
I've been waiting all my life
Just to wake up and be fine
Not to feel the heavy weight
Of all the faults I have to date
Pour a coffee, try a smile
Watch the birds a little while
They sing love songs to the sun
So should I, at least, just one?
So should I, at least, just one?
[Chorus]
Guess I found religion sitting in the kitchen
Oh, Lord, I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
