Nine
Half of Heaven (Raise Me Saved)
[VERSE 1]
Sauntered vaguely downwards
But I fell fast for you
Tripping over my own feet
And tripping over my words into
'The greatest story ever told'
Repeated time and time again:
I meet you
I fall in love
And you don't love me back
[VERSE 2]
When innocence is crucified
When all I ever did was ask
When I don't believe in much
Save for the love that I drowned in fast
You gave your sword up lovingly
You built the wall with you outside
So I meet you
I fall in love
And hoped you'd love me back
[PRE-Chorus]
I have stood by you from thе start
My darling, I won't stop now
I will come to you, wherevеr you are
No fire can keep me out
[Chorus]
You can fell half of heaven with that smile
I would know, love
Cause all of me keeps falling everyday
I don't need to be lifted up by any saving grace
Your light is more than enough to raise me saved
[VERSE 3]
To the sacredness of you
All I can offer is myself
The tatters of who I think I am
The empty ruins of my heart and my hands
I know there's nothing left for me
But I've never been able to stop my heart
So I'll meet you
I'll fall in love
You don't need to love me back
[PRE-Chorus]
I have stood by you from the start
My angel, I won't run now
To find you, wherever you are
No fire will keep me out
[Chorus]
You can fell half of heaven with that smile
I would know, love
Cause all of me keeps falling everyday
I don't need to be lifted up by any saving grace
Your light is more than enough to raise me saved
[BRIDGE]
There's a love
That doesn't ask for much
I don't need you to look at me like you'd get lost in my eyes too
I don't have much
By way of words
But I want you to know
As long as I can love you
It's alright
It's alright
I'm alive in loving you
It's alright
It's alright
I'm arisen in loving you
It's alright
It's alright
I am whole in loving you
It's alright
It's alright
[...Dearest, I love you too]
[We're alright]
[Chorus]
You can fell half of heaven with that smile
I would know, love
I've fallen for it every single day
I don't need to be lifted up by any saving grace
Your light is more than enough to raise me saved
Come what may
Hell or heaven, sword or flame
I'm with you, love
Where I'll return to every single day
I don't need to be lifted up by any saving grace
Your love is more than enough to raise me saved
