I Know That Loving

She sings inside me It's so beautiful And I'd hear her calling And I would raise myself To live up to her love And not look down on me Forgiving me again And I hear her calling Do you wanna get out of the water? Do you wanna try and carry on? I get so alone I get so alone She sings inside me It's so beautiful And I'd hear her calling But it's like a waterfall Falling down on me Forgiving me again And I know that loving [Chorus] Like feet that have never been walked on I know that Hands that never held no blame Can't you see that I guess you'll stay Eyes that have never cried angry tears It's always the same A face that never felt that shame Well, that's my heart It's calling out your name These things inside me They're like chemicals I see the birds fly And I'd disgust myself To be free of that love Pull myself from under the weight of it all And I hear her, hear her [Chorus] Like feet that have never been walked on I know that Hands that never held no blame Can't you see that I guess you'll stay Eyes that have never cried angry tears It's always the same A face that never felt that shame And I've got to give it up I've got to give it up It's just that quality of forgiveness Forgiveness is what I need If I could only get out of the water If I could only get myself clean And I've got to give it up I've got to give it up Like feet that have never been walked on I know that Hands that never held no blame I'm running on my knees for you Eyes that have never cried angry tears It's always the same A face that never felt that shame She's standing at the altar Like feet never walked on I know that she's waiting there Like hands never held no blame If I could only get out of the water You're crying, crying If I could only get out of here But I've gotta give it up That felt no shame I've got to give it up [Chorus] Like feet that have never been walked on I know that, I know that Hands that never held no blame Can't you see that I'm running scared Eyes that have never cried angry tears I'm running, running A face that never felt that shame [Final verse from Across Six Leap Years] There's a sound that never alters Like feet never walked on It's ringing in my ears Like hands never held no blame If I could only get out of the water You're crying, crying If I could only get out of here
