What if I told you my heart was black, blacker than black
Showed you all my dirty laundry in a neat and filthy stack
Would you wash my clothes in your river divine
Then set my shame free and hang them out to dry on salvation's line
Would you, would you?
I've been called a lot of things, but never have I been pure
Love has always come with dirty deeds, and my heart has always longed for more
I'm pulling back these darkened shades, treading these bleak streets no more
Cuz when the sun shines on me, for the first time
I feel alive, ohhhh
Said I never felt like this before
But now I feel it, I'm so sure
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, love with you
What you have done for me I will try to repay
There is no payment for freedom in full and bleeding out this soul of pain
What kind of lover covers me up, when I am laying in shame?
Oh I've got myself, I've only ever had myself to blame, oh I blame
Cuz when the sun shines on me, for the first time
I feel alive, ohhhh
Said I never felt like this before
But now I feel it, I'm so sure
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, love with you
