Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Six weeks is all you've got
That's what they told her yesterday
She thought that she'd be in a white dress
Instead of this hospital gray
Six month ago today
That when he asked her for her hand
And now beneath fluorescent lights
She's in a battle she can't win
And she cries
Hope is all I need
I'm broken and on my knees
So where is God tonight?
I'm waiting, waiting for love to arrive
Six years out on the street
Not a dollar to his name
He was happy once before he
Slowly drank it all away
Like a sail without the wind
He's a man that's lost at sea
all he wants to be is dry
But all he ever does is sink
And he cries
Hope is all I need
I'm broken and on my knees
So where is God tonight?
I'm waiting, waiting for love to arrive
Six hours on a tree
Hung the God of innocence
It wasn't fair that he should die
For someone else's sin
So when we wonder if He cares
Just remember He's been there
So yes, He loves us
When hope is all we need
We find it on our knees
Where doubts give way to sight
He's been here
While we're waiting for love to arrive
