| Just like every cross you ever carried
|
| Every badge you ever wore
|
| Every vow you ever taken
|
| Every oath you ever swore
|
| Every kiss you ever stolen
|
| Every moment that you waste
|
| Everything you ever loved
|
| And all you come to hate
|
| It’s a great temptation in your hour of need
|
| But there’s no shortcut to salvation
|
| Searching for the kingdom key
|
| Just like every vision you neglected
|
| Every dream you left to die
|
| Every hope that you rejected
|
| Every truth that was a lie
|
| Every road you ever traveled
|
| Everyone you turned away
|
| Everything you ever loved
|
| And all that you betray
|
| It’s a great temptation in your hour of need
|
| But there’s no shortcut to salvation
|
| Searching for the kingdom key
|
| And the light before him was all that he could see
|
| Like fingerprints on the hand of glory wrapped round a rosary
|
| His love was like a chain that would not set you free
|
| Would not set you free
|
| A lonely soul on a mission of mercy
|
| Hey yeh… mmm. |
| mmmm
|
| Mmm mmm
|
| Just like every cross you ever carried
|
| Every badge you ever wore
|
| Every vow you ever taken
|
| Every oath you ever swore
|
| Everything you ever loved
|
| And all you come to hate
|
| It’s a great temptation in your hour of need
|
| But there’s no shortcut to salvation
|
| Searching for the kingdom key
|
| It’s a great temptation in your hour of need
|
| But there’s no shortcut to salvation
|
| Searching for the kingdom key
|
| Hey hey |
