Verse 1: You gotta quit that lyin' baby You ain't got me fooled so don't be lyin to yourself Lord knows I heard you cryin' I know you read the rhyme and now the truth it tells Chorus: See I've lived through my share of life It's been mostly good but it threw me some offhanded curves Can I be straightforward with no parables? It's plain to see what you're reachin' for Verse 2: It's time to stop the hurtin' You can blame it on them all but the power is in your hands You can let them get to you or stand up for what's right Was love not patient? Was it not kind? Should it manipulate and hurt all times? It is not jealous; it should not brag; it does not act improper Doesn't seek its' own; it is not provoked It bears all things, believes all things, it hopes all things, and endures all things 2nd Chorus: See I've lived through my share of strain Close ones doubted me; sure it hurt, but it strengthened me To place faith in my Father who truly cares for me An unfailing love is what we all long for Outro: Don't drown in the shallow love; for its' shores are treacherous A deeper ocean's not far off; where infinite love's so unconditional God's infinite love's unconditional
