Nichole Nordeman - Gone Are The Days lyrics
rate meDo I dare even where what I was thinking of?<br />
My true colors bleeding on my sleeve<br />
Do I chance the romance that I've been dreaming of<br />
Instead of wishing for it quitely<br />
Always at a distance,<br />
I wish You'd safely stayed<br />
Despite my resistance<br />
You sought me anyway<br />
Chorus:<br />
Gone are the days,<br />
Of all that I was afraid of<br />
I've left behind the traces of who I've been<br />
I'm no longer able<br />
To wrestle with this angel<br />
And the closer You get I can let You love me<br />
I had found it was easier to dance around<br />
The edges of who I could be<br />
If I chose to expose what grows deep down<br />
Would You still desire what You see?<br />
No more self-rejection<br />
No longer paralized<br />
This holy perfection<br />
Is my inside Your eyes<br />
Chorus:<br />
Gone are the days,<br />
Of all that I was afraid of<br />
I've left behind the traces of who I've been<br />
I'm no longer able<br />
To wrestle with this angel<br />
And the closer You get I can let You love me (You love me)<br />
Bridge:<br />
Nevermind this mirror hanging on the wall<br />
'Cause I could not pretend to be the fairest of them all<br />
Took a hammer to the glass<br />
To shatter all the pieces, the pieces of my past<br />
Chorus:<br />
Gone are the days,<br />
Of all that I was afraid of<br />
I've left behind the traces of who I've been<br />
I'm no longer able<br />
To wrestle with this angel<br />
And the closer You get I can let You love me (repeat until fade)
