Tender Mercies

[Verse 1: Glen Hansard]

It came to nothing

This longing

This long

Your tender mercies

They weren't enough

Weren't enough

[Chorus: Glen Hansard]

Oh, what I said, it's taken us

So long to learn, the world is

Coming down around us while

We wait our turn

Now we're running out of road

And hope, where have you gone?

[Verse 2: Eddie Vedder]

They'll try to warn ya

It's a cruel world

A cruel world

They'll mislead and misinform you

Don't you turn

Don't you turn

[Chorus: Glen Hansard]

Oh, what I said, it's taken us

So long to learn, the world is

Falling down around us while

We wait our turn

Now we're running out of road

And hope, where have you gone?

[Bridge: Eddie Vedder, Glen Hansard]

Beyond that light storm in the air

I wonder if you'd hear it now

An endless storm come ringing through the air

[Chorus: Glen Hansard]

Oh, what I said, it's taken us

So long to learn, the world is

Coming down around us while

We wait our turn

Now we're running out, still

Plain in doubt, still

Jumping from the windows of love

[Outro: Glen Hansard & Eddie Vedder]

Your tender mercies

They weren't enough

Weren't enough
