Lyrics

This Depression

Baby, I've been down but never this down
I've been lost but never this lost
This is my confession, I need your heart
In this depression, I need your heart

Baby, I've been low but never this low
I've had my faith shaken but never hopeless
This is my confession, I need your heart
In this depression, I need your heart

I haven't always been strong but never felt so weak
And all my prayers gone for nothing
I've been without love but never forsaken
Now the morning sun, the morning sun is breaking

This is my confession, I need your heart
In this depression, I need your heart
This is my confession, I need your heart
In this depression, I need your heart
This is my confession, I need your heart
In this depression, I need your heart
