John Mark Nelson After All I've Done Lyrics

Breakdown stop and repair it all
Cut the lose ends each time we fall
Pick up the pieces and start again
When life burns down a new life can begin
I've got nothing to call upon
Nothing to prove where I belong
Nothing can save what you embrace
And I may never see that pleasure in your face
What if I've forgotten
What if I'm afraid to love
What if there's no answers
To the questions that define my failures

[Chorus]
Even for a single moment
Everything around is faded
And this is where I long to know you
And everything that you've created
Even when I'm scared to follow
I could be the song you sing [?]
Come and see my in the light of morning
I don't even know who you are

I give up when you look at me
With a new face that I've never seen
When I feel safe then I go too far
Lost myself in the beauty that you are
I don't know just which way to be
I lose my way so easily
If you can live on in a memory
Maybe writing you down is just a better way to let you be
I have heard you breathing
And nothing else can feel so true
Tell me what to call you
Oh, you know me more than I do know you [Chorus]
Even for a single moment
Everything around is faded
And this is where I long to know you
And everything that you've created
Even when I'm scared to follow
I could be the song you sing [?]
Come and see my in the light of morning
I don't even know who you are

In my youth I knew you
In the words and in the sounds
Like a storm in springtime longing to be found
I've become my stranger
I don't know which way to run
Would you take me like this
It's all that I've done

[Chorus]
Even for a single moment
Everything around is faded
And this is where I long to know you
And everything that you've created
Even when I'm scared to follow
I could be the song you sing [?]
Come and see my in the light of morning
I don't even know who you are

[Chorus]
Even for a single moment
Everything around is faded
And this is where I long to know you
And everything that you've created
Even when I'm scared to follow
I could be the song you sing [?]
Come and see my in the light of morning
I don't even know who you are
