I carry my mistakes
And she carries them too
When all I see are bruises black
She shows me the blue
I remember the tears in the morning
The dread of the veil gently falling to the floor
I'll never know divinity
So inadequately I write
In meter and verse
She believes in God
But I believe in her
When my ship has run its course
She steers me back out to the sea
She won't let me run aground
I've seen the storms she's met; I've seen the tears in secret shed
She sees me as an eagle though I am just a crow
She sees me as a diamond though I'm just a weathered stone
I'll never know divinity
So inadequately I write
In meter and verse
She believes in God
But I believe in her
I stole a glimpse of you in pain
And I'll take the image to my grave
You look towards the heavens, and I look up to you
I kneel because there are no words, an act will have to do
She believes in God but I believe in...
...no divinity
So inadequately I write
In meter and verse
She believes in God
But I believe in her
