Eryn Allen Kane – Have Mercy
Eryn Allen Kane – Have Mercy Lyrics:
[Verse]
When I count all my blessings, blessings
I can’t even be sad any more
Can’t even be sad any more
When I count all my blessings, blessings
My heart still hurts for the world that I know
The world that I know
[Pre-Chorus] x2
Sinking down under the water
Slipping down under
Drifting out into the water
Missing down under
Tell me what is it you care for?
Is there even a care at all?
Praying for sense of direction
Praying for love and protection
[Verse] + [Pre-Chorus] x2
[Chorus] x4
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy, have mercy, have mercy
(Have mercy on us all)
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy, have mercy, have mercy
(Have mercy on us)
Have mercy, have mercy
Have mercy, have mercy
(Have mercy on us all, us all)
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy, have mercy, have mercy
[Bridge] x3
If I call on a blessing, Lord
Will you remember me?
If I call on a blessing, Lord
Will you remember me?
[Outro]
We try, we try, We try, we try
Said we try, And we try,
And we try, And we try.
