Song For The Broken
Wedding Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

CHORUS
Don't give up on the hope
That keeps you breathing
Cause after all is said and done
It's all your lonely heart has

So look forward to your day of liberation
When you can stop grieving

So how much would it cost for you to gain everything
Everything you lost deserved to be gone anyway
So don't give up, yeah, don't give in
To the world around you that pressures you
To give up the fight, roll over and die
Forget the way you were

CHORUS

So how much pain could you take
Before you gave up
Would you throw it all away
Would you fight for that one day
When you heard your Savior say
When you heard your Savior say
My child I always knew you'd make it home
So walk through those gates of gold and claim your throne

CHORUS

So I wait for you to save me
So I wait for you to save me
Still I wait for you

To lift me off my feet and
Still I wait for you in the dark of the night
(Still I wait for you to save me)
Cause I won't give up the fight
(Still I wait for you to save me)
Still I wait for you in the dark of the night
(Still I wait for you to save me)

Still I wait for you, again
Still I wait for you, again
Cause in the dark of the night is where you'll find me
Head held in my hands is where,
Still I wait for you

Don't give up on the hope
That keeps you breathing
Casue after all is said and done
(So I wait for you to save me)




It's all your lonely heart has
(So I wait for you to save me)
