Falling at your feet Coming apart slowly I kneel before you now Asking forgiveness for all that I’ve done Standing outside of Zion
The Lord writes better tunes I pray for some guidance My work is rough and rude There was a time when I heard your song It rang out so sweetly, and I sang along And it’s still in my head, playing 1 2 3 1 Standing outside of Zion
Every mistake that I made I’d make them all over again ‘cos all of those wrong turns and stumbles I took Let me glimpse perfection
I dreamt the Promised Land But I’ve lost my way lately And I don’t know how this ends There have been times when my faith was strong There have been times when I got it all wrong And there have been days when the people were crying Lord were you lying Leaving us standing outside of Zion
