Ten Talents

Last night I had a dream
That you decided to leave me
And no matter what I said
My persuasion fell upon your deaf ears

Don't leave me here alone
I'm not so good on my own

I'm not so good
I'm not so good on my own

Is it too late? Am I too gone?
Is there something I should know
Am I working for nothing?
Will there ever be anything to show

Is it true? I don't know what the storybooks have told
Though I wouldn't be so bold to say so
Will I do what I'm told? Will I play my hand or fold?
Will I stand my ground and hold? I would like to think so

If I just walked away
Would you still save me
Or would you take back all that you gave me

Is it too late? Am I too gone?
Is there something I should know
Are we working for nothing?
Is there anything to show for the service
Is it worthless? All the waiting is the hardest part

Come home my dear because I love you. I love you still

It's a slap in the face
When I feel my complacency grow
It's the thrill of the chase
When you catch it you just let it go
I take for granted the grace that is given me daily I know

How can you say that you love me when all that I want
All that I want is your blessing and then I am gone
Nothing I do can make up for the things I have done

Love is all we need
We're gonna make it
So let's close our eyes tonight and just believe
