lyrics

MERCY MILD

Intro:
In so many ways, I've wasted my days.
You could say I deserve what I get
Still I'm faced with past dealing, with terrible feelings
Of guilt, and or loss and regret
I've managed to burn through
The saints and the saviours I knew
So father time, mother love
I turn once more sadly to you

Verse:
Mercy Mild
Why don't you come to me, tap on my shoulder?
Mercy Mild
I'm growing older, make me a child

Chorus:
I've been living in the shadows
I want to stand in the light
I've been wandering in the wilderness
I wanna come inside

Verse:
The hurt inside
Why will it never, never me over?
My heart is tired
Tired of the passion, tired of the pride

Chorus:

Mercy Mild
Why don't you come to me, tap on my shoulder?
Mercy Mild
I'm growing older, make me a child
Make me a child
