Reason
Perry and the poor boysIt covers up my past and warms my soul
My halo falls upon my proud and darkened eyes
See my reflection as a thinly veiled disguise
My sad heart needs another chance
Your promise to forgive me is written on your hands
I'm getting closer to letting go of this
How can we ever earn what's given as a gift
Come now let's reason together
Says the Lord of love
Though your sins be as scarlet
They shall be as wool
Instead of red like crimson
They shall be whiter than snow
My faith in me
Is drowning in the rain
I guess I'm not the kind of saint I always claimed
Tried to believe the very best about myself
Until I stumble then I'm back to where I fell
Come now let's reason together
Says the Lord of love
Though your sins be as scarlet
They shall be as wool
Instead of red like...
Cast into the sea
They are gone forever
Remembered never
Into the deep blue sea
I can hear you calling
Calling out my name
I'm crawling back to you on hands and knees in shame
I see your hand could it be reaching out to me
You pull me up and now I'm standing
I'm set free
Come now let's reason together
Says the Lord of love
Though your sins be as scarlet
They shall be as wool
Instead of red like crimson
They shall be whiter than snow...
