New Jerusalem

Patiently waiting for some new Jerusalem A sacred time where demons didn't know you Then, stood on the banks clutching rosary noose Open the floodgates and abandon the sluice Oh, Laura, I love you more Than you'll ever know How can I protect you from these things that you won't let go? I wish I'd been older I wish I'd been more of a guardian A shoulder to cry upon, a brother to rely upon I took your shelter, I didn't think twice I owe you everything, I owe you my life I was afraid, I ran away Oh, I begged you to come for the skies On fire, and you couldn't see it at all And love is just a word You thought that you heard All it means is never, never say never, no Don't give up on me yet Can you learn to forgive all that you learn to forget? It's just a word You thought that you heard All it means is never, never say never, no Don't give up on me yet Can you learn to forgive all that you learn to forget? I'm trying to find a way back home I'm trying to find a way back home I'm trying to find a way back home I'm trying to find a way back home Love is just a word You thought that you heard All it means is never, never say never, no Don't give up on me yet Can you learn to forgive all that you learn to forget? It's just a word You thought that you heard All it means is never, never say never, no Don't give up on me yet Can you learn to forgive all that you learn to forget?
