Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own (Alternative Version) Lyrics

Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn

Take these hands
And teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist, no
Take this mouth
So quick to criticise
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always the pain before the child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting for the dawn

Take these blue eyes
Take these blue eyes
Take these eyes and make them see
Love is just a drop in the ocean
This love is just a drop in the ocean
Love is just a drop in the ocean

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, you're waiting for me
Still I'm waiting for the dawn

Take this city
A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will
What no man can own, no man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this heart
And make it break
