I went out of my way just to call you It rang till you answered the phone That all familiar voice, that all familiar tone Without you I know I can't make it Without you I feel so afraid It's written in the stars, it's written in the scars Till everyone hears, till everyone sees How wide is your love, how deep is your sea So never hold back, just give it to me Straight to the heart, like mercy (Like mercy) I read in your diary about me, each page was a story of love You never minced your words, I couldn't get enough I know you don't want my religion, my reputation is gone All you want is my affection, my heart and my soul Till everyone hears, till everyone sees How wide is your love, how deep is your sea So never hold back, just give it to me Straight to the heart, like mercy (Like mercy) I don't want to go back to lonely I just want to get out of these chains Ain't nobody but You can free me You have the power to change
