Grace
Joy and Lara Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And all the things that I wanted to say
The angry words that came from nowhere
without warning
That stole the moment and sent me away
And you standing there at the doorway crying
And me wondering if I'd ever be back
I didn't come here to lose
I didn't come here believing I would ever be
away from you
I didn't come here to find out
There's a weakness in my faith
I was brought here by the power of love
Love by grace
And I remember the road just went on forever
Just couldn't seem to turn that car around
'Till in the distance like a long lost treasure
A phone booth that just could not be found
And you standing there at the doorway waiting
And the moment when we laid back down
I said I didn't come here to leave you
I didn't come here to lose
I didn't come here believing I would ever be
away from you
I didn't come here to find out
There's a weakness in my faith
I was brought here by the power of love
Love by grace
That was just a moment in time
And one we'll never forget
One we can leave behind
'Cause when there was doubt
You'll remember I said
I didn't come here believing I would ever be
away from you
I didn't come here to find out
There's a weakness in my faith
I was brought here by the power of love
I was brought here by the power of love
Love by grace

I remember the rain on the roof that morning
I remember the moment when things began to change
And all the things that I wanted to say
I regret not being able to express what I was feeling
The angry words that came from nowhere without warning
I made a mistake by saying hurtful things impulsively
That stole the moment and sent me away
My actions caused us to grow apart
And you standing there at the doorway crying
I hurt you deeply and I can see your pain
And me wondering if I'd ever be back
I realize I might have lost you forever
I said I didn't come here to leave you
I still feel the same love for you
I didn't come here to lose
I didn't come here to end our relationship
I didn't come here believing I would ever be away from you

I was brought here by the power of love Love by grace
Our love can overcome any challenge
And I remember the road just went on forever
Our love journey seemed never-ending
Just couldn't seem to turn that car around
I couldn't find a way to fix our problems
Till in the distance like a long lost treasure
Until I found hope in a unexpected place
A phone booth that just could not be found
A beacon of light in our dark time
And you standing there at the doorway waiting
Your love and support has never wavered
And the moment when we laid back down
Our reconciliation brought back our intimacy
That was just a moment in time
Our problems were temporary
And one we'll never forget
It was an important moment in our lives
One we can leave behind
We can move forward from our mistakes
‘Cause when there was doubt You'll remember I said
Our love will endure any doubts
I didn't come here believing I would ever be away from you
My love for you will never fade
I didn't come here to find out There's a weakness in my faith
I believe in our love and in us
I was brought here by the power of love I was brought here by the power of love Love by grace
Our love is strong and it will help us overcome any obstacle
