Song Lyrics

"The Way That You Love Me"

by John Elefante
Album: Defying Gravity

I had a dream when I-I was young
That someday I would, become
The one that stood up there and
s-ang the songs

Someone gave me an o-ld guit-ar
It wasn't much but it w-as a start
Of a road that I would soon be travelin' o-n
But I played out my dr-eam and
n-ow it's gone

Suddenl-y, my whole world changed
My directions and priorities were not the same
A light app-eared inside my h-eart
The war inside was over, I could never be apart

If I could live to be a thousand years
I could never learn how
To love You like You love me
If I could l-earn everything there is to learn
I could never learn how, to love like You love me
But I'll try the best I can
It's a n-ev-er ending journey
To l-earn t-o love, the way that You love m-e

I wear my t-ears like the clown
I wear a p-ainted on frown
Sometimes I just can't show the way I f-eel

I wanna wear my heart out on my
sl-eeve
And hope that you see Jesus not m-e
I'm just not the man this word wants me to b-e, n-o

I say that I-I would die for my s-on
But faced with that decision, would I stay or would I run
Your l-ove is not limited by s-in
For this there is no measure, no beginning or no end

And if I could live to be a thousand years
I could never learn how
To love You like You love me
If I could l-earn everything there is to learn
I could never learn how, to love like You love me
But I'll try the best I can
It's a n-ev-er ending journey
It's a n-ev-er ending journey
It's a n-ev-er ending journey
To l-earn t-o love, the way that You love m-e
