Songtext von As Heaven is Wide

Nothing that you say will release you Nothing that you pray would forgive you Nothing's what your words mean to me Something that you did will destroy me Something that you said will stay with me Long after you're dead and gone CHORUS: If flesh could crawl my skin would fall From off my bones and run away from here As far from God, as heaven is wide As far from God, as angels can fly If holy is as holy does This house will burn straight down to hell And take its conscience with it as it falls Nothing said could change the fact My trust was blind, you broke the pact If God's my witness, God must be blind CHORUS (1x) I wish...I wish...I wish...I wish Take it back, I dare you take it back No you can't, you should have thought of that What's inside a man that goes so wrong? Choke on guilt that's far too good for you Say one word, I'll laugh and bury you Leave you in the place where you left me CHORUS (1x) I wish I could fly As angels can fly
