lyrics

Once I was a fool didn’t know nothing at all
I was ruled by hatred I bore malice towards all

I’ll never know what made You do it
I’ll never know what made You decide
To work on big old idiot me
I don’t care I’m just glad
To think of what You’ve done

Once my troubles were a brick wall 500 feet high
At the age of fourteen I was looking for a place to die

I’ll never know what made You do it
I’ll never know what made You decide
To work on big old idiot me
I don’t care I’m just glad
To think of what You’ve done

And when there come those darkest moments
When my soul’s about to cave in
Under the pressure of being led by a serpent’s leash
You give me the necessary slap on the face
You free me to go and find my place
Good to know that all the time You were always there

Once I lived my life only wanting to survive
Now all I want to do – I just want to live Your life

I’ll never know what made You do it
I’ll never know what made You decide
To work on big old idiot me
I don’t care I’m just glad
To think of what You’ve done

Now I wait to meet You in the air
I wait to meet You in the air
I wait to meet You in the air
I wait to meet You in the air

Now I wait to meet You in the air
I wait to meet You in the air
I wait to meet You in the air
I wait to meet You in the air
