rate me

You make it sound easy<br>You say just hold your hand out don't you<br>You just hold your hand out don't you<br>That hope never leaves you<br>'cos a light shines on that helps you to steer<br>Makes everything clear<br>(well it might)<br>Well it might in your world<br>(but it doesn't)<br>But it doesn't in mine<br>(I've been stumbling)<br>I've been stumbling in the dark for years<br>And the light just made me blind<br><br>You say it lights every pathway<br>Shows me how to live life<br>For the rest of my days<br>For the rest of my days<br>(but I can't)<br>But I can't put my faith in<br>(your words)<br>Your words and demands<br>(I believe)<br>I believe in God alright<br>It's folk like you I just can't stand<br><br>You don't have to try and scare me<br>To reinforce my faith sir<br>'cos I know that one day<br>I'll stand before my maker<br><br>(and it I'm found)<br>And if I'm found wanting<br>(when my case)<br>When my case is heard<br>(it'll be)<br>It'll be by the author<br>Not some interpreter of his words<br><br>You make it sound easy<br>You say just hold your hand out don't you<br>You just hold your hand out don't you<br>That hope never leaves you<br>'cos a light shines on that helps you to steer<br>Makes everything clear<br>(well it might)<br>Well it might in your world<br>(but it doesn't)<br>But it doesn't in mine<br>(I've been stumbling)<br>I've been stumbling in the dark for years<br>And the light just made me blind<br>Yeah the light just made me blind
