So you never knew love... until you crossed the line of grace And you never felt wanted... 'til you'd someone slap your face So you never felt alive... until you'd almost wasted away You had to win, you couldn't just pass The smartest ass, at the top of the class Your flying colors, your family tree And all your lessons in history Please... please... please... Get up off your knees Please... please... please... Please... (One, two, three, four) So you never knew... how low you'd stoop to make that call And you never knew... what was on the ground until they made you crawl So you never knew... that the heaven you keep, you stole Your catholic blues, your convent shoes Your stick on tattoos, now they're making the news Your holy war, your northern star Your sermon on the mount from the boot of your car Please... please... please... Get up off your knees Please-yeah... please... please... Leave me out of this place So love is hard and love is tough But love is not what you're thinking of September, streets capsizing Spilling over down the drains Shards of glass, splinters like rain But you could only feel your own pain October, talk getting nowhere November... December... remember We just start it again Please... please... please... Get up off your knee there Please... please... please... Please... So love is big, is bigger than us But love is not what you're thinking of It's what lovers deal It's what lovers feel You know I've found it hard to receive Cause you my love I could never believe.

I want to run I want to hide I want to tear down the walls That hold me inside I want to reach out And touch the flame Where the streets have no name I want to feel sunlight on my face I see the dust cloud disappear Without a trace I want to take shelter from the poison rain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name We're still building Then burning down love Burning down love And when I go there I go there with you It's all I can do The city's aflood And our love turns to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Trampled in dust I'll show you a place High on a desert plain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name We're still building Then burning down love Burning down love And when I go there I go there with you It's all I can do Our love turns to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Blown by the wind Oh, and I see love See our love turn to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Blown by the wind Oh, when I go there I go there with you It's all I can do

See the stone set in your eyes See the thorn twist in your side I wait for you Sleight of hand and twist of fate On a bed of nails she makes me wait And I wait without you With or without you With or without you Through the storm we reach the shore You give it all but I want more And I'm waiting for you With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you And you give yourself away And you give yourself away And you give And you give And you give yourself away My hands are tied My body bruised, she's got me with Nothing to win and Nothing left to lose And you give yourself away And you give yourself away And you give And you give And you give yourself away With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you With or without you
