Mercy On MeMercy On Me - Sound Clip
©1998 Mary Godfrey

Verse:
Brother, we can’t keep fighting this way
We’ve been vieing for power way too long
We’ve said too many words, made too many wounds
More than I can consume
Chorus:
We live with this worn out busted love
We stay together in favor of
$$ , people , places and things , it’s all meaningless
When you don’t have the love you need
Mercy on me , mercy
Verse:
I shiver every time that we meet
You’re like winter , you’re so cold when you speak
You have your own agenda , and so do I have mine
Though I have , I’ve always tried to rectify , why
repeat chorus
Pre-solo:
Love has dwindled down to nothing
Bridge:
This indifference makes me blue
This lack of love i get from you
Has stained my heart , untainted heart
Have mercy , mercy on me
repeat chorus
Post chorus:
Forsaken love is the worst kind of love
Forsaken love is the worst kind of love
Forsaken love is the worst kind of love

Verse:
Way down in the city / lives a soul-searchin man
He tapes up reminders / to be happy not sad
He talks to his brothers / he talks to his friends
He speaks of the bible / he says what he can
Chorus:
He says...... Pray .... we’ve lived another day ..... pray
Pray..... we’ve lived another day.... pray to God
Verse:
He’s felt the pain of many / he’s felt the pain of few
He knows it doesn’t matter what he’s gonna do
He knows he has no power / ‘cause it’s out of his hands
The only thing that he can do / is talk to the man
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
He has his moments like the rest of us do
Those evil thoughts / they tend to slip through
Then he lights the incense / burns the candles
Says another prayer
He prays to God to get him through dispair
Repeat Chorus

Verse:
Why did you kiss me on that stormy night
Why did you let me believe that the heaven in your eyes
Was with- in my reach
Post Verse:
I should’ve known that it wasn’t right I
Should’ve picked up a sign that the
Sweetness on your lips was a rose / off the vine
Where the sun don’t shine
Verse:
My friends told me you better beware
Cause love Draws the line and I
Couldn't hear a word they’d say cuz love is blind
Chorus:
I keep towing the line
Where the sun don’t shine
Bridge:
I couldn't stay if you’d catch me falling on my knees
I’m tired of waiting and watching to see
What’s next (what’s next) to get
You will see tommorrow as reflections of today
Chorus:
The schemes you lay / the way you betray
I’ve resigned myself to fate
Daggers tear my heart in two
Where the sun don’t shine / Where the sun don’t shine

You will never know how to fuel
My energy
I can’t stand another day
Where the sun don’t shine Where the sun don’t shine

Verse:
Give me ... Air to breathe
Closed in ... tight spaces make me nervous
Slowly ... I pull away ... The train is leaving
Only ... Seasons stay the same
Pre Chorus:
I can hear the wind ... It’s blowin' hard
I can see the trees .... Barely with new leaves
Chorus:
Barefoot in the Springtime
Carefree in the Summer
Summer’s comin’... Days are passing ...
Time is winding Down on me and ... you
I just wanna be ...
Barefoot in the Spring ...
Verse:
Don’t need fire ... No flame is burning
Can’t win ...There’s another heart I’m
yearn’n for... Only when you least expect it
Love comes running ... Surely then you know it’s fate
Pre Chorus:
In Paris lovers dance in sweet romance
In Venice lovers sing the sound of Spring
Chorus:
Barefoot in the Springtime
Carefree in the Summer
Summer’s comin’ Days are passing
Time is winding Down on me and ... you
I just wanna be.. Barefoot in the
Spring ...
SOLO
EndChorus:
I just wanna be ... Barefoot in the Spring ...
I just wanna be ... Barefoot in the Spring ...
Barefoot in the Spring ...
Barefoot in the Spring ...
