Songs Of Faith And Devotion


1. I FEEL YOU

2. WALKING IN MY SHOES
                I would tell you about the things
                They put me through
                The pain I've been subjected to
                But the Lord himself would blush
                The countless feasts laid at my feet
                Forbidden fruits for me to eat
                But I think your pulse would start to rush


                Now I'm not looking for absolution
                Forgiveness for the things I do
                But before you come to any conclusions
                Try walking in my shoes
                Try walking in my shoes


                You'll stumble in my footsteps
                Keep the same appointments I kept
                If you try walking in my shoes
                If you try walking in my shoes


                Morality would frown upon
                Decency look down upon
                The scapegoat fate's made of me
                But I promise now, my judge and jurors
                My intentions couldn't have been purer
                My case is easy to see


                I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
                Peace of mind after what I've been through
                And before we talk of any repentance
                Try walking in my shoes
                Try walking in my shoes


                You'll stumble in my footsteps
                Keep the same appointments I kept
                If you try walking in my shoes
                If you try walking in my shoes
                Try walking in my shoes


                Now I'm not looking for absolution
                Forgiveness for the things I do
                But before you come to any conclusions
                Try walking in my shoes
                Try walking in my shoes


                You'll stumble in my footsteps
                Keep the same appointments I kept
                If you try walking in my shoes


                You'll stumble in my footsteps
                Keep the same appointments I kept
                If you try walking in my shoes
                Try walking in my shoes
                If you try walking in my shoes
                Try walking in my shoes

3. CONDEMNATION
                Condemnation
                Tried
                Here on the stand
                With the book in my hand
                And truth on my side


                Accusations
                Lies
                Hand me my sentence
                I'll show no repentance
                I'll suffer with pride


                If for honesty
                You want apologies
                I don't sympathize
                If for kindness
                You substitute blindness
                Please open your eyes


                Condemnation
                Why
                Because my duty
                Was always to beauty
                And that was my crime


                Feel elation
                High
                To know I can trust this
                Fix of injustice
                Time after time


                If you see purity
                As immaturity
                Well it's no surprise
                If for kindness
                You substitute blindness
                Please open your eyes

4. MERCY IN YOU
                You know what I need
                When my heart bleeds
                I suffer from greed
                A longing to feed
                On the mercy in you


                I can't conceal
                The way I'm healed
                The pleasure I feel
                When I have to deal
                With the mercy in you


                I would do it all again
                Lose my way and fall again
                Just so I could call again
                On the mercy in you


                When here in my mind
                I feel inclined
                To wrongly treat you unkind
                I have faith I will find
                The mercy in you


                I would lose my way again
                Be led hopelessly astray again
                Just so I could pray again
                For the mercy in you


                When here in my mind
                I have been blind
                Emotionally behind
                I have faith I will find
                The mercy in you

5. JUDAS
                Is simplicity best
                Or simply the easiest
                The narrowest path
                Is always the holiest
                So walk on barefoot for me
                Suffer some misery
                If you want my love
                If you want my love


                Man will survive
                The harshest conditions
                And stay alive
                Through difficult decisions
                So make up your mind for me
                Walk the line for me
                If you want my love
                If you want my love


                Idle talk
                And hollow promises
                Cheating Judases
                Doubting Thomases
                Don't just stand there and shout it
                Do something about it


                You can fulfil
                Your wildest ambitions
                And I'm sure you will
                Lose your inhibitions
                So open yourself for me
                Risk your health for me
                If you want my love
                If you want my love
                If you want my love
                If you want my love

6. IN YOUR ROOM
                In your room
                Where time stands still
                Or moves at your will
                Will you let the morning come soon
                Or will you leave me lying here
                In your favourite darkness
                Your favourite half-light
                Your favourite consciousness
                Your favourite slave


                In your room
                Where souls disappear
                Only you exist here
                Will you lead me to your armchair
                Or leave me lying here
                Your favourite innocence
                Your favourite prize
                Your favourite smile
                Your favourite slave


                I'm hanging on your words
                Living on your breath
                Feeling with your skin
                Will I always be here


                In your room
                Your burning eyes
                Cause flames to arise
                Will you let the fire die down soon
                Or will I always be here
                Your favourite passion
                Your favourite game
                Your favourite mirror
                Your favourite slave


                I'm hanging on your words
                Living on your breath
                Feeling with your skin
                Will I always be here

7. GET RIGHT WITH ME
                I will have faith in man
                That is hard to understand
                Show some humility
                You have the ability
                Get right with me


                Friends, if you've lost your way
                You will find it again some day
                Come down from your pedestals
                And open your mouths that's all
                Get right with me


                Life is such a short thing
                That I cannot comprehend
                But if this life were a bought thing
                There are ways I know we'd mend


                People, take my advice
                Already told you once, once or twice
                Don't waste your energy
                Making apologies
                Get right with me

8. RUSH
                Walk with me
                Open your sensitive mouth
                And talk to me
                Hold out your delicate hands
                And feel me
                Couldn't make any plans
                To conceal me


                Open your sensitive mouth
                Hold out your delicate hands
                With such a sensitive mouth
                I'm easy to see through
                When I come up
                When I rush
                I rush for you


                Cry for you
                Seen the tears
                Roll down from my eyes for you
                Heard my truth
                Distorting to lies for you
                Watched my love
                Becoming a prize for you


                Seen the tears in my eyes
                Heard my truth turn to lies
                Seen the tears in my eyes
                I'm not proud of what I do
                When I come up
                When I rush
                I rush for you


                I come up to meet you
                Up there somewhere
                When I rush to greet you
                My soul is bared


                Gave more for you
                Dropped my crutches
                And crawled on the floor for you
                Went looking behind every door for you
                And because of the things
                That I saw for you
                I spiritually grew


                When I come up
                When I rush
                I rush for you

9. ONE CARESS
                Well I'm down on my knees again
                And I pray to the only one
                Who has the strength
                To bear the pain
                To forgive all the things that I've done


                Oh Girl
                Lead me into your darkness
                When this world is trying it's hardest
                To leave me unimpressed
                Just one caress
                From you and I'm blessed


                When you think you've tried every road
                Every avenue
                Take one more look
                At what you found old
                And in it you'll find something new


                I'm shying from the light
                I always loved the night
                And now you offer me eternal darkness


                I have to believe that sin
                Can make a better man
                It's the mood that I am in
                That left us back where we began

10. HIGHER LOVE
                I can taste more than feel
                This burning inside is so real
                I can almost lay my hands upon
                The warm glow that lingers on


                Moved, lifted higher
                Moved, my soul's on fire
                Moved, by a higher love


                I surrender all control
                To the desire that consumes me whole
                Leads me by the hand to infinity
                Lies in wait at the heart of me


                Moved, lifted higher
                Moved, my soul's on fire
                Moved, by a higher love


                Heaven bound on the wings of love
                There's so much that you can rise above


                Moved, lifted higher
                Moved, moved, by a higher love
                By a higher love


                I surrender heart and soul
                Sacrificed to a higher goal


                Moved, moved by a higher love
                By a higher love
