She was so beautiful Lightning in her hair She was in his sight But the flashing lights Of resentment filled his eyes Left him scared and blind
Pre-chorus
Life is cold now He wishes he could see
Chorus
Forgiveness walks right by him But he can't see her face It's bitterness that blinds him Oh, she walks up to him He would look her in the eyes If he still believed in grace Still believed in grace
Verse
He used to dance with her This old man in a chair Now he don't walk no more They used to dance like the wind Until a storm blew him down Left him broken on the floor
Pre-chorus
Life is slow now He wishes he could reach
Chorus
Forgiveness dances by him But he can't join her Cuz bitterness leads instead Oh, he reaches for him And he would take her hand If she could raise the dead Oh, she could raise the dead
Pre-chorus
Looking back now At what others have missed
Pre-chorus
I am pleading For redemption's kiss
Chorus
Forgiveness walks up to me And i will join her Cuz bitterness leads to death Oh, she reaches for me And i will take her hand Together we will dance Oh, together we will dance
