Mercy

[phyllis11_19_03]

Well I have lived ten years plus ten
And ten and ten again
I have seen too much to pretend
Then you wanted to come in
I have survived all of the lies
They made me wise
The locks and walls and the peace is buys
Still when I look into your eyes
It's a suprise when you say
It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
Let it all go away
Oh mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me
Well I plead mercy, mercy baby
I do not know what this all means
It's been awhile since I been stylin'
In just my jacket and my jeans

It hurts to walk, it hurts to talk
It hurts to think about it
Shout about it
Could I be sure without a doubt
That you could never live without me
I want to fall in you, crawl in you
Surrender all in you now
Could I be sure in you, pure in you
Finding the cure in you
Now I plead have mercy on me

Now I am kneeling at the alter
In the temple of your eyes
And I am asking for a miracle
I have been too long paralyzed
When you say get up and stand up
And climb the rope of hope
And open up again
All the peace you say is promised me
Seems too much to comprehend

Its gonna be alright, its gonna be okay, just hold on tight, let it all go away,
What do you want from me?
What do you want from Me?
Mercy baby,
Mercy baby,
its gonna be alright, its gonna be okay, just hold on tight, let it all go away.
Mercy,
Mercy,
Mercy.
