Faith I Do Believe
Rusted Root Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Blind, to the ones I love,
I will lift my head up to the ones I love,
We'll shine with the ones we love,
This blind disease has hurt so many times before
This blind disease has hurt so many times
Her reach for her, Her reach for her,
My better love shown in the raging kind,
She long for my prayer, She long for my baby,
I got love for her, she's my raging sign,
This blind disease has hurt so many times before
I'll take my step, Back into me,
My better love shown, In faith I do believe.
Choked up my pawn, Move along my queen,
She love my prayer, Safety of my king. This blind
Disease has hurt, so many times before,
This blind disease has hurt, so many
Times before I got to my highest point
Lovers and friends, My hurt is gone, Been hoping to find my way,
Hands of light will come, To uncrystalize our fear,
Cause in faith I do believe, Cause in faith I do believe,
Cause in faith I do believe
Her reach for her, Her reach for her
