Original date of this Draft: November 15, 2007 - almost a year to the day. Still love this song. Still irrelevant in this house. Still a shame.
I've kept this song in the back pocket of my heart for almost two years. Still waiting to pull it out and make it real:
When it was over and they could talk about it
She said "there's just one thing I have got to know:
What in that moment when you were running so hard and fast,
Made you stop and turn for home?"
He said "I always knew you loved me, even though I'd broken your heart
I always knew there'd be a place for me to make a brand new start"
Oh love wash over a multitude of things
Make us whole
When it was over and they could talk about it,
They were sitting on the couch.
She said "what on earth made you stay here,
When you finally figured out what I was all about?"
He said "I always knew you'd do the right thing,
Even though it might take some time"
She said, "Yeah, I felt that and that's probably what saved my life"
Oh love wash over a multitude of things
Make us whole
There is a love that never fails
There is a healing that always prevails
There is a hope that whispers a vow
A promise to wait while we're working it out
So come with Your love and wash over us
Love wash over a multitude of things
Jesus, save us from a multitude of things
Make us whole
A promise to wait
A promise to stay
So come with Your love and wash over us
