Forty days and forty nights.
Reparation will cleanse the soul,
Till the next time you walk into the fire
With your eyes closed.
So many lessons learned,
Yet you still fail to make the grade.
He says: trust in me, and I'll protect you.
You forget all the vows you made.
For all of the sins
You'd said you'd forsake,
You're making the same mistake.
When the thrill is gone,
And the lights are on,
It's just you
And a voice inside you,
Saying:
[Chorus]
I think I'm in trouble again,
And I know it's too late to pray.
I think I'm in trouble again,
And I think I'm going to need some help.
Forty days and forty nights.
Reparation has left you cold.
Looks like this time
It won't be as easy
To save your soul.
So many bridges burned,
So many sad mistakes.
You will find,
For piece of mind,
There's one hell of a price to pay
For all of the sins
You said you'd forsake.
You're leaving it all to fate.
When the thrill is gone,
And the lights are on,
It's just you
And a voice inside you,
Saying:
[Chorus]
Forty days and forty nights.
Reparation will cleanse the soul,
Till the next time you walk into the fire
With your eyes closed.
I think I'm in trouble again.
[Chorus]
