I can remember the story well
And I could tell the tale
But you may not think that it’s true
A Man was talking about living good
And if He could
He would offer His life for you
I thought He was a crazy Man but He acted so cool
He said the dumb could understand and the pauper could rule
He outsmarted everyone who got in His way
And it was clear the Man right here was perfectly sane
~Chorus~
If you ever have a hollow heart
He can fill i-t He c-an
And if you’ve ever torn your soul apart
He can mend i-t He c-an
I do remember what people said
This Man is better dead
But I could not help what they’d feel
I would just listen it sounded good
Well the Man He stood, alone and sang His song from a hill
He aggravated everyone who thought they were fine
He called people vipers if they were living a lie
And I could not shake what He was sayin’ to me
Ah and when He died, down inside I was, so incompl-ete
~Chorus~
(He c-an)
That was the w-ay it started
A new testament, for me, and you
And I could leave it broken hearted
Or take it all in
But what am I, what am I, what am I gonna d-o
