They say get even, but You forgive
They shut people out, but You bring them in
They rush to judgement, but You hold yours back
They only take, but You give all that You have
Uh, yeah, they only take but You give it all back
The song of Your love on such a different track, such a different beat
The one that makes you smile at defeat
Crazy how you move forward but it's feelin' backwards
And nothin' really seems to change it and you lack words
Couldn't handle the truth, had to adopt lies
I guess that's why it's feelin' counterclockwise, yeah
When they don't understand, don't be surprised
When they look at you like you've lost your mind
Because the way His love makes you live your life
Sometimes it's, sometimes it's so, counterclockwise
Keep moving and it pushing you back, keep moving and it pushing you back (counterclockwise)
Keep moving and it pushing you back, but Your love was bigger than that
(counterclockwise)
They say give up, but you won't give in
Live like you want, but you look to Him
They hide the truth but you're the light on their lies
Wanna shut you down, but you know you gotta rise
Uh, yeah, hard to know which way to turn when you a turn up
Only thing about a star is that they burn up
Yeah, you gotta make your own decision
Them lies cut deep, but He healed my incision
The road less traveled, yeah, doesn't look as fun
But there is nothing worth chasing under the sun
Gotta realize that'll never fulfill
The cost adds up and only He can close that bill
When they don't understand, don't be surprised
When they look at you like you've lost your mind
Because the way His love makes you live your life
Sometimes it's, sometimes it's so, counterclockwise
Keep moving and it pushing you back, keep moving and it pushing you back (counterclockwise)
Keep moving and it pushing you back, but Your love was bigger than that
(counterclockwise)
Don't be afraid to be the one that He will use, to open up their eyes to see what love can do
You don't have to hide; don't apologize (don't apologize)
When they don't understand, don't be surprised
When they look at you like you've lost your mind
Because the way His love makes you live your life
Sometimes it's, sometimes it's so, counterclockwise
Love's much bigger than that (bigger than that), counterclockwise
Ohhh, love's much bigger than that, it's counterclockwise
Love's much bigger than that (bigger than that), counterclockwise
Love's much bigger than that, it's counterclockwise
Love's much bigger than that (bigger than that)
Ohhh, love's much bigger than that, it's counterclockwise
