Modest Attraction Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lyrics & music: Simeon Liljegren

You must be blind man if you can't see the light
It's such a feeling it's a wonderful sight
God will use you now if you let him try
Open up your soul

Hey you! You must be dreaming
You're so far from home
My friend if you only believe me
He will give you so much love,
Give you so much love

You might think you are Mr. Nice Guy
Who doesn't need no God, but are you pleased
Where you are
But I tell you now and that's a fact
That without our God
We had not stand here at all

Hey you! You must be dreaming
You're so far from home
My friend if you only believe me
He will give you so much love





(Rhodes electric piano played by Niklas Johnsson)
