lyrics
Jesus is coming and I can't pay the rent,
The love is in the details
I was there when, ,
You were sick and you were tired,
Saying "I just need a friend",
You needed me to cry,
Honey, I can never cry,
Now I'm always laughing,
Laughing at the wrong time,
Laughing at the wrong time.
I shook hands with the soldier,
It wasn't his call.
I forgave you everything that was never your fault
I listened to your lover, I look him in the eye
I try to do the same for you dear, when i say that he's alright.
I walked the back streets between your memory and the sea,
But I coudn't find a way to be the person that you need
I gave you everything that I am and am now
Till I felt like the boy that gravity forgot..
Gravity forgot
Jesus is coming and I can't pay the rent
The love is in the details
I was there when ,
You were sick and you were tired,
saying I just need a friend,
You needed me to cry,
Honey, I can never cry
and now I'm always laughing,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time.
I don't want to fight you, if i have to ight,
I don't want to fight you, but if i have to fght,
I don want to fight you but if i have to fight
you're worth the fight.
Jesus is coming and I can't pay the rent
The love is in the details
I was there when ,
you were sick and you were tired,
saying "I just need a friend",
You needed me to cry,
Honey, I can never cry
and now I'm always laughing,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time..
I shot the messenger in the back of the head,
I knelt before the statue that never felt,
the vibration of the prayer that I'm trying to send,
Now,I'm weak at the knees dear, standing on the ledge,
Weak at the knees dear, standing on the ledge.
Jesus is coming and I can't pay the rent
The love is in the details
I was there when ,
you were sick and you were tired,
saying I just need a friend,
You needed me to cry,
Honey, I can never cry
and now I'm always laughing,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time,
laughing at the wrong time..
laughing at the wrong time
I don't want to fight you, if i have to fight,
I don't want to fight you, but if i have to fght,
I don want to fight you but if i have to fight
I don't want to fight you, if i have to fight,
I don't want to fight you, but if i have to fight,
I don want to fight you but if i have to fight
you're worth the fight.
