Lyrics

LOVE IN A FAITHLESS TOWN

Let me down easy
Let me down slow
It doesn’t matter that I fall
It only matters that I know
Just what you saw
Through your anxious eyes
Did I ever have the chance
To see beyond your lies?
I should’ve known better this time around
This is how you love when you love in a faithless town

Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love…It’s the kind of love I’ve found
Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love

You were the gypsy
And I was the fool
Who thought your heart was strong
And your love was true
But like Icarus falling
To his death at sea
I fell into the web of lies
You spread for me
I should’ve known better this time around
This is how you love when you love in a faithless town

Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love…It’s the kind of love I’ve found
Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love

Please tell me Jesus
How did you feel
When the crowd let you down
And your fate was thus sealed?
Still, you rose to your glory
And your victory
I see no way that I can rise above
What buried me
I should’ve known better this time around
This is how you love when you love in a faithless town

Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love…This is all the love I’ve found
Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love

When you love in a faithless town
You’re never quite sure if it’s love you’ve found
You’re never quite sure at all

When you love in a faithless town
You’re never quite sure if it’s love you’ve found
Will you stumble and fall?

When you love in a faithless town
You’re never quite sure if it’s love you’ve found
Will you stop or stall?

When you love in a faithless town
Maybe love in a faithless town
Is better than no love at all…

Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love…It’s the kind of love I’ve found
Love…Love…Love in a faithless town
Love…Love

Faithless love…
(Love…Love…love in a faithless town)
Faithless town…
(Love…Love…Love in a faithless town)
Faithless love…
(Love…Love…love in a faithless town)
Faithless town…
(Love…Love…Love in a faithless town)

Faithless love…Faithless love…Faithless love…
Love in a faithless town
