I had a dream when I was young That someday I would become The one that stood up there and sang the songs Someone gave me an old guitar It wasn't much but it was a start Of a road that I would soon be travelin' on But I played out my dream and now it's gone
Suddenly my whole world changed My directions and priorities were not the same A light appeared inside my heart The war inside is over, I could never be apart
(chorus) If I could live to be a thousand years I could never learn how To love like You love me If I could learn everything there is to learn I could never learn how to love like You love me But I'll try the best I can It's a neverending journey To learn to love the way that You love me
I wear my tears like the clown I wear a painted on frown Sometimes I just can't show the way I feel I wanna wear my heart out on my sleeve And hope that you see Jesus, not me I'm just not the man this world wants me to be, no
(chorus)
I say that I would die for my son But faced with that decision, would I stay or would I run Your love is not limited by sin For this there is no measure, no beginning or no end
(chorus) If I could live to be a thousand years I could never learn how To love like You love me If I could learn everything there is to learn I could never learn how to love like You love me But I'll try the best I can It's a neverending journey It's a neverending journey It's a neverending journey To learn to love the way that You love me
