Tender Mercies

It came to nothing This longing This long Your tender mercies They weren't enough Weren't enough 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 will have you gone 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 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 will have you gone Beyond that light storm in the air I wonder if you'd hear it now An endless storm come ringing through the air 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 Your tender mercies They weren't enough Weren't enough
