Down On My Knees

Well I’ve never been one for misfortune
And I guess I just did as I pleased
And though life was cruel it didn’t touch me at all
But lately I’ve been down on my knees

Your love left me broken and shattered
And I pray every night for release
I used to stand tall now I stumble and I fall
Cause lately I’ve been down on my knees

When I was a younger man
Well I gave in to youth
But I’m older and I’m wiser now
And I just give in to truth
And in the loneliness of this empty bed
I’m the living proof

Oh I know in my heart I’ll recover
Like a blind man who suddenly sees
And I know I’ll be strong and that life will go on
Till then I’ll be down on my knees

When I was a younger man
Well I gave in to youth
But I’m older and I’m wiser now
And I just give in to truth
And in the loneliness of this empty bed
I’m the living proof

Oh I know in my heart I’ll recover
Like a blind man who suddenly sees
And I know I’ll be strong and that life will go on
Till then I’ll be down on my knees
