Mercy Lyrics - Solace - Sarah Mclachlan

Mercy pure and simple 

Longing cold and hollow 

With sweet breath you'd come to warm me 

But I held on too hard to only a memory 

You lie there on the swollen ground 

Deserted in your heart 

Still longing for what yesterdays lost 

And for all that tomorrow might bring 

And for all that tomorrow might bring 

The passion lost taken stolen 

The dreams we had and we shared shattered broken 

With sweet breath you'd come to soothe me 

But I so blind and filled with fear 

Would send you away from me 

There's no hope in regretting now 

All the pain that we could not see 

We both knew what we wanted 

And we took it believing it free 

And we took it believing it free
