Given
It's not given because you deserve it
it's given by grace
It's not given because you deserve it
it's given by grace
I can't believe how close it was
as close as it gets
New days promise newer wonders
like a laugh, a smile, a frown
Then comes a day like any other
when the world comes crashing down
I saw you go... how could I know
if this would be the last
time that we'd ever be
together, you and me?
It's not given because we deserve it
it's given by grace
It's not given because we deserve it
it's given by grace
Though all too brief the hours we'd shared
had redrawn my life
In this high stakes world of give and take
couldn't you be left alone
to learn from life's many small mistakes
to discover on your own?
I couldn't bear just standing there
You were drifting out of reach
Then your eyes opened up to mine
a blessing and a sign
Not given because I deserved it
but given by grace
Chance or design, what's the reason?
I wouldn't know where to begin
Faith is a small consolation
I look for a light from within
It's not given because you deserve it
it's given by grace
It's engraved in my heart by the wonder
I see in your face
It's not given because you deserve it
it's given by grace
It's not given because you deserve it
it's given by grace
I can't believe how close it was
as close as it gets
New days promise newer wonders
like a laugh, a smile, a frown
Then comes a day like any other
when the world comes crashing down
I saw you go... how could I know
if this would be the last
time that we'd ever be
together, you and me?
It's not given because we deserve it
it's given by grace
It's not given because we deserve it
it's given by grace
Though all too brief the hours we'd shared
had redrawn my life
In this high stakes world of give and take
couldn't you be left alone
to learn from life's many small mistakes
to discover on your own?
I couldn't bear just standing there
You were drifting out of reach
Then your eyes opened up to mine
a blessing and a sign
Not given because I deserved it
but given by grace
Chance or design, what's the reason?
I wouldn't know where to begin
Faith is a small consolation
I look for a light from within
It's not given because you deserve it
it's given by grace
It's engraved in my heart by the wonder
I see in your face
It's not given because you deserve it
