Jars of Clay five candles you were there lp version

Select language to translate this lyric

Promise or a dare
I would jump if I knew you'd catch me
Staring over the edge
I can't tell if you'll be here for me
I close my eyes and make a wish
Turn out the lights and take a breath
Pray that when the wick is burned
You would say that it's all about love
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open
(Wide, wide open)
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open
But you were never here
I remember you said
Love was more than your good intentions
Empty boxes on the floor
Things I never asked you for
I pray that when the wick is burned
You would say that it's all about love
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open
(Wide, wide open)
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open
(Wide, wide open)
And I can't see the promise of
Excuses you fall upon
So I pray to God not holdin' on
To things you've left undone
Eyea hey, hey, hey
Eyea hey, hey, hey
(Wide, wide open)
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open
(Wide, wide open)
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open
(All about love)
(Wide, wide open)
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open
(All about love)
(Wide wide, open)
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open
(All about love)
(Wide wide, open)
You were there when I
You were there when I
You were there when I needed you
(Wide, wide)
(Wide, wide)
(Wide, wide)
