Mercy Songtext / Lyric

mercy came calling today,

God knows i needed to see her

courage left me out in the lane,

beat up and runnin' without her



she told me sit down, you made a mess of things

she was right

she said, you got to slow down,

don' need ta stay out all night

mercy



mercy reached out,

put her arms around me

kissed me and seemed at home

i said don't leave me, looked in her eyes

she knows who i am an' knows what i done



mercy came callin' today an'

i think it's the only way

i can sleep easy, or even sleep at all






mercy came singing tonight,

she called me out to dance

her sweet grace brought me delight,

it's so much more than romance

she took me right to it,

i didn't think i could do it

that old dragon's gone, mercy slew it



oh mercy put her arms around me,

kissed me, she seemed at home

i said don't leave me, i looked in her eyes,

she knows who i am an' she knows what i done



she forgives but she doesn't deceive me

oh mercy don't leave me

the radio here by my bed doesn't ring anymore in my head

mercy!

mercy came callin' today,

God knows i needed to see her

she came callin' today,

God knows i needed to see her

callin' today, oh callin' today,

mercy came callin' today
