Story Behind the Song
Written ten years ago and rerecorded in 2K2.
The lyrics alone are powerful. They ask for the strength to carry on whilst questioning the motives of all of us.
In the end, we have to answer to one thing - love. Did we give as much as we took?
Lyrics
Did my time in the city,
on that strip of golden dreams.
No, I never pushed too hard it's true,
where life wasn't what it seems.
How can you share so little between so many?
Lord, I swear I'll never know.
It's a question of love
God, I know you'll never take me away from here.
Lord, please ease the pain.
God, I know you'll never take me away,
Lord, please ease the pain.
I hope that I will be forgiven,
for wanting my soul to be free.
I thought I saw the steps of heaven
in one of many daydreams.
When will we learn to live with one another?
Lord, I hope one day I'll see.
It's a question of love.
God, I know you'll never take me away from here,
Lord, please ease the pain.
(Can you hear me? Can you hear me?)
God, I know you'll never take me away.
Lord, please ease the pain.
