Delivered

I delivered you, you delivered love
That was deeper and wider than I ever dreamed of
It’s taken me to places that I otherwise would never know
Places to deep for any fool to willingly go

It’s the kind of love you can’t walk away from
Though you watch it walk away from you
Like your heart’s runnin round outside yourself
And there’s nothin you can do

You gotta let it go, and somehow keep it safe
Let it grow, and feel it ache
It’s a painful, beautiful love
It’s a painful beautiful love

I held you, you held my heart
In a permanent embrace no one could tear apart
You smashed down the walls of the house I built for love
Expanded my view, released the dove

It’s the kind of love you can’t walk away from
Though you watch it walk away from you
Like your heart’s runnin round outside yourself
And there’s nothin that you can do

You gotta let it go, and somehow keep it safe
Let it grow, and feel it ache

It’s a painful, beautiful love
It’s a painful beautiful love

I delivered you, you delivered love
