NICKEL CREEK - Doubting Thomas lyrics

rate me

what will be left when i've drawn my last breath,

besides the folks i've met and the folks who know me,

will i discover a soul cleansing love,

or just the dirt above and below me,

i'm a doubting thomas,

i took a promise,

but i don't know what's safe,

oh me of little faith,

sometimes i pray for a slap in the face,

then i beg to be spared 'cause i'm a coward,

if there's a master of death i'll bet he's holding his breath,

as i show the blind and tell the deaf about his power,

i'm a doubting thomas,

i can't keep my promises,

'cause i don't know what's safe,

oh me of little faith

i'm a doubting thomas,

i can't keep my promises,

'cause i don't know what's safe,

oh me of little faith,

can i be used to help others find truth,

when i'm scared i'll find proof that its a lie,

can i be lead down a trail dropping bread crumbs,

that prove i'm not ready to die,

please give me time to decipher the signs,

please forgive me for time that i've wasted,

i'm a doubting thomas,

i'll take your promise,

though i know nothin's safe,

oh me of little faith
