about

This is a song that was written and begun during the sessions for "Refuge", but the only parts that were recorded back then were a rough lead track and the percussion tracks. When I began working on "The Calling" in 2004, I pulled this one back off the shelf and recorded basic tracks for it. It still didn't really fit with the songs on that album, so it was shelved once again. In 2008, while working on what would become "Frame of Mind", I finished recording it, but yet again decided against releasing it.

I guess you could say that this is a song that has been searching for an album for a long time. Now it has found one, and I'm glad that I can finally share it with you!

lyrics

I don't know why you love me.
I don't know why you care.
Whenever I need you around me,
I don't know why you're always there.
I know that I don't deserve you.
I don't deserve you at all.
Yet you're always there to catch me
every time I fall.

Chorus: Someone else who could love me more,
I'll never find.
The way that you've made me yours
just blows my mind.
Oh, you blow my mind.

I don't know why you've saved me.
I don't know why I'm free.
I don't know why you were willing to take the pain
that was meant for me.
I know I'll never repay you
for saving me.
If you hadn't stood in my place,
I don't know where I'd be.

Chorus

Bridge: I know your love is unbelievable.
I know your love is inconceivable.
I never knew what love was
until I saw what you'd done for me...
There's something about your love.

I don't know why you love me.
I don't know why you care.
Whenever I need you around me,
I don't know why you're always there.

Chorus
