Matthew Clark - Everything But You Lyrics

When desire itself is soured wine
You will drown in your own wishing well
Cause when love is god your bleary eyes
Will be the wandering stars you'll travel by

And I was sure that love was leading me
And that God himself had paved the way
But above all else the human heart is deceitful

When I got to the end of the heart that all my loves had emptied
I lost everything, everything, but you

I tore a page out of the holy book
And I tailored words to suit my ears
But I'd spun those clothes like spider webs
Till I was cold and caught in my own fears

Cause that sugar coat can't cover grief
I learned light does not need dark to see
Oh my bones were sown in Eden's soil, don't it make you tired?

Past the gates of hell where I made my bed
I woke up from my dreams to face the truth
That the truth has a Face

When I got to the end of the heart that all my loves had emptied
I lost everything, everything, but You
