Nichole Nordeman - Gone Are The Days Lyrics
Do I dare even where what I was thinking of?My true colors bleeding on my sleeveDo I chance the romance that I've been dreaming ofInstead of wishing for it quitelyAlways at a distance,I wish You'd safely stayedDespite my resistanceYou sought me anywayChorus:Gone are the days,Of all that I was afraid ofI've left behind the traces of who I've beenI'm no longer ableTo wrestle with this angelAnd the closer You get I can let You love meI had found it was easier to dance aroundThe edges of who I could beIf I chose to expose what grows deep downWould You still desire what You see?No more self-rejectionNo longer paralizedThis holy perfectionIs my inside Your eyesChorus:Gone are the days,Of all that I was afraid ofI've left behind the traces of who I've beenI'm no longer ableTo wrestle with this angelAnd the closer You get I can let You love me (You love me)Bridge:Nevermind this mirror hanging on the wall'Cause I could not pretend to be the fairest of them allTook a hammer to the glassTo shatter all the pieces, the pieces of my pastChorus:Gone are the days,Of all that I was afraid ofI've left behind the traces of who I've beenI'm no longer ableTo wrestle with this angelAnd the closer You get I can let You love me (repeat until fade)
