Sara Groves - The Long Defeat lyrics

Your rating:


I have joined the long defeat 

that falling set in motion 

all my strength and energy 

are raindrops in the ocean 


so conditioned for the win 

to share in victor's stories 

but in the place of ambition's din 

I've heard of other glories 


I pray for an idea 

and a way I cannot see 

It's too heavy to carry 

and impossible to leave 


I can't just fight when I think I'll win 

that's the end of all belief 

and nothing has provoked it more 

than a possible defeat 


I pray for an idea 

and a way I cannot see 

It's too heavy to carry 

and impossible to leave 


We walk a while we sit and rest 

we lay it on the altar 

I won't pretend to know what's next 

but what I have I've offered 


I pray for a vision 

and a way I cannot see 

It's too heavy to carry 

and impossible to leave 


I pray for inspiration 

and a way I cannot see 

It's too heavy to carry 

and impossible to leave
