"Go in peace" I said to my friend
I'm not the one you were seeking after all
Here's your release from my anger and my failure
I thought you knew its only hot air after all

Chorus:
Strong arms are waiting
The lovers of my soul
Who will let me live
Where streams of mercy flow

Without a word or with one too many
Either way I get the message loud and clear
I do defer and I'll say it was easy
But my witness starts to crumble loud and clear

Chorus

Bridge
In calm waters I am shrinking down to size
Tender hands lift me up and hold me like a prize
