Settled me in the shadow of your wing, to lie upon soft flowers,
Set my feet down beside your footprints, step together across the waterside,
The shore always changes when the waves crash in.
But inside my heart is a thirsty land that drips with desire, pouring over the short horizon,
Wilts like perishing flowers; petals lie resting, to lie down with lions.
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days.
Beneath the desert sky, past the scenery,
You take my heart and carry me away past the bottom, where the dust of life gathers in the heart,
I realise...I realise is too deep, yeah.
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days.
Better days, its better days.
Skipping over mountains, running for the trees,
Take a rock out of the stream, crawl out underneath,
How long will I remain a man?
When will I grow back into a child?
Take a seat inside my head,
Pull the statues out, and I polish them,
Yeah, I polish them, I polish them,
Yeah, I polish them.
Without surrender, there is no love,
Without healing, there is no love,
Without mercy, there is no love,
Without forgiveness, there is no love.
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days,
Love has seen its better days,
(fade)
