How You Love Me

Why does my heart turn to stone?
Why do I turn my back on you?
Why am I numb? Look at what I’ve become.
Can’t you break me in two?

Oh, how you love me
In spite of myself.
Oh, how you love me
Like nobody else.

All of the light fades away
As I turn from your face
And drift away while you call me to stay
In your sweet embrace.

Oh, how you love me
In spite of myself.
Oh, how you love me
Like nobody else.

I run away from you
but every step you chase me down.
I hide behind the walls I build
Won’t you shout and make them tumble down?
Lost in my confusion
Please seek me till I’m found.
Behind a mask I hide myself
Won’t you tell me

Who am I in your eyes?
How can you look on my face?
For my heart is so stained and dark
But you wash the sin away.

Oh, how you love me
In spite of myself.
Oh, how you love me
Like nobody else.
