Lyrics
DELIVER ME ? words and music by Jeffrey Hatcher
Driving at midnight and the moon is looking right at me
I can feel it settling down on me
Over me
Come deliver me from this night
Well I left you standing so alone when I started wandering
But I don?t mind saying it now oh please
Come to me
Come deliver me from this night
CHORUS:
All that love we had found
Well we drove it underground
Deliver me
This canyon?s on fire now and I?m wondering
How much longer
Could it be til it comes tumbling down
Over me
Come deliver me from this night
CHORUS
Deliver us from our yesterdays
Hold us together if it can?t be done
Deliver us from all that might be
If we get what we think we want
