 No  one would love  me
 If  they knew all the things  I hide
  <same as="" the="" first="" verse="">
 My words fall to the floor
 As tears drip through the telephone line
 And  the hands I've seen raised  to the sky
 Not  waving but drowning all  this time
 I'll  try to build the ark  that they need
 To  float to you upon the crystal sea
 Give  me your  hand to hold
 'Cause  I can't stand  to love alone
 And  love alone is  not enough to hold  us up
 We've  got to touch  your robe
  <then intro="" again="">
 So swing your robe down low
 Swing your robe down low
 The prince of despair's been beaten
 But the loser still fights
 Death's on a long leash
 Stealing my friends to the night
 And everyone cries for the innocent
 You say to love the guilty, too
 And I'm surrounded by suffering and sickness
 So I'm working tearing back the roof
 And the pain of the world is a burden and it's my cross to bear
 And I stumble under all the weight
 I know you're Simon standing there
 And I know you're standing there

N[E]o one would love[A9] me

I[E]f they knew all the thing[A9]s I hide

 <same as="" the="" first="" verse="">

My words fall to the floor
As tears drip through the telephone line

An[B9]d the hands I've seen raised[A9] to the sky

No[B9]t waving but drowning [A9]all this time

I'[B9]ll try to build the ar[A9]k that they need

To[E] float to you upon the crystal sea  [A9]

Gi[E]ve me your[A9] hand to hold

'C[E]ause I can't st[A9]and to love alone

An[E]d love alone is[A9] not enough to h[E]old us up

We[A]'ve got to tou[B9]ch your robe [A]

  <then intro="" again="">

So swing your robe down low
Swing your robe down low

The prince of despair's been beaten
But the loser still fights
Death's on a long leash
Stealing my friends to the night

And everyone cries for the innocent
You say to love the guilty, too
And I'm surrounded by suffering and sickness
So I'm working tearing back the roof

And the pain of the world is a burden and it's my cross to bear
And I stumble under all the weight
I know you're Simon standing there
And I know you're standing there
