What He Wrote - Live at Albert Hall Lyrics

[00:00.97] Let's bring the mood down a little
[00:14.86] Forgive me, Hera, I cannot stay
[00:20.59] He cut out my tongue
[00:23.12] There is nothing to say
[00:27.79] Love me, oh Lord
[00:30.38] He threw me away
[00:33.27] He laughed at my sins
[00:36.03] In his arms I must stay
[00:41.73] He wrote
[00:44.44] I'm low
[00:46.97] Please send for me
[00:52.06] But I am broken too
[00:54.60] And spoken for
[00:57.58] Do not tempt me
[01:01.94] Her skin is white
[01:04.26] And I'm light as the sun
[01:07.70] Holy light shines on the things you have done
[01:14.77] So I asked him how he became this man
[01:19.88] How did he learn to hold fruit in your hands?
[01:23.82] And where is the lamb that gave you your name?
[01:29.88] He had to leave but I begged him to stay
[01:36.40] Left me alone when I needed the light
[01:41.26] I fell to my knees and I wept for my life
[01:45.65] If he had have stayed you might understand
[01:51.36] If he had have stayed you never would have taken my hand
[01:58.67] He wrote
[02:01.07] I'm low, please send for me
[02:08.54] But I am broken too
[02:11.17] And spoken for
[02:13.97] Do not tempt me
[02:17.88] And where is this lamb that gave you your name?
[02:23.73] He had to leave though I begged him to stay
[02:29.93] Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip
[02:35.18] I begged him to stay by the light of this ship
[02:39.86] Me fighting him, fighting light, fighting dawn
[02:44.62] And the waves came and stole him and took him to war
[02:52.57] We write
[02:54.82] And that's alright
[02:57.57] I miss his smell
[03:02.40] And we speak when spoken to
[03:07.38] And that suits us well
[03:12.44] That suits us well
[03:17.76] That suits me well
[03:21.86]
