Love You More

You said, "go and sin no more ..." Though my eyes could not meet Yours I started running the third time the rooster crowed You threw a party just for me Though I squandered everything I was blinded in the middle of the road Climbed up in a tree to see You Swallowed by the sea to flee You Sold You for a little silver and a kiss Killed a man to love his woman Burned a bridge back to Your garden Hung beside You while you took Your final breath You've been loving me since time began You're behind my every second chance I love You I'm trying to Love You more I'm ready Please help me Love You more I keep thinking there's a limit Sure I must be getting near it When I've used up every pardon and regret But You promise there is freedom Gathered up the broken pieces Scattered them as far as East is from the West You've been loving me since time began You're behind my every second chance I love You I'm trying to Love You more I'm ready Please help me Love You more With all the sand that fills the hourglass With every breath between my first and last I love You I'm trying to Love You more I'm ready Please help me Love You more
