Tender Mercies

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Glen Hansard] It came to nothing This longing This long Your tender mercies They weren't enough Weren't enough [Chorus: Glen Hansard] Oh, what I said, it's taken us So long to learn, the world is Coming down around us while We wait our turn Now we're running out of road And hope, where have you gone? [Verse 2: Eddie Vedder] They'll try to warn ya It's a cruel world A cruel world They'll mislead and misinform you Don't you turn Don't you turn [Chorus: Glen Hansard] Oh, what I said, it's taken us So long to learn, the world is Falling down around us while We wait our turn Now we're running out of road And hope, where have you gone? [Bridge: Eddie Vedder, Glen Hansard] Beyond that light storm in the air I wonder if you'd hear it now An endless storm come ringing through the air [Chorus: Glen Hansard] Oh, what I said, it's taken us So long to learn, the world is Coming down around us while We wait our turn Now we're running out, still Plain in doubt, still Jumping from the windows of love [Outro: Glen Hansard & Eddie Vedder] Your tender mercies They weren't enough Weren't enough
