Nine Lashes Where I Belong
As dark as the night
A terrible sight
I wandered far away from home
No way to escape
Though try as I might
But You found a gate to my surprise
I never knew You were there
Just wanting to help me up when the road got hard
I'll never go there again
Discovering where You are, where You are
I tried to carry the ache alone
Thought I could brave the cold (woah, woah oh)
I found that I couldn't change the old
Never could break the mold (woah, woah oh)
So take my slow beating heart
You are where I belong
A sleight of the hand
A change in the plan
I'd had it nearly figured out
Could not understand
Was I at the end?
I'd only sought to play pretend
I never knew You were there
Just wanting to help me up when the road got hard
I'll never go there again
Discovering where You are, where You are
I tried to carry the ache alone
Thought I could brave the cold (woah, woah oh)
I found that I couldn't change the old
Never could break the mold (woah, woah oh)
So take my slow beating heart
You are where I belong
You are, You are the only one
You are, You are the only
You are, You are the only one
You are, You are the only
The only
I tried to carry the ache alone
Thought I could brave the cold (woah, woah oh)
I found that I couldn't change the old
Never could break the mold (woah, woah oh)
So take my slow beating heart
You are where I belong
