When people sing about Jesus
They go to a different place
They can no longer see us
We can see it on their face
Even if we don't believe in Jesus
Not since we were small
They can no longer free us
But they can lead us down the hall and sing
"Here is a doorway to a better way of living
All your sins forgiven
Love has no beginning or end
Just bend til you can't stand it and let yourself fall..."
When people sing about Jesus
They leave the world behind
They're not looking to please us
They're not using they're mind
Even if we don't believe in Jesus
And we're pretty sure we don't
They break off a little piece of us
And leave the rest alone and sing
"Here is a doorway to a better way of living
All your sins forgiven
Love has no beginning or end
Just bend til you can't stand it and let yourself fall..."
(repeat)
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
He is the savior of the heavens
Born of the Virgin Mary
The most high
He is my friend
The son of the father
Oh my lord, my lord
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone I'm gonna gonna
"Here is a doorway to a better way of living
All your sins forgiven
Love has no beginning or end
Just bend til you can't stand it and let yourself fall..."

Slow down, girl
Here's where we stop walking
I'm gonna listen to you
Sit down, girl
Here's where I stop talking
I'm gonna listen to you
Feel the warmth pour in
Temper all your fears
Any little thing you want to say
I'm all ears
Let go, girl
Secrets aren't for keeping
I want to listen to you
You know, girl
My shoulder's useless without your weeping
I want to listen to you
Feel the glow begin
Haven't felt in years
None of it can make me run away
I'm right here
I know the last few years things have been rough
I talked and talked and talked until you had enough
I see you sitting there trying to look so tough
I'm gonna listen to you... see if you can take in all my love
Come on and sit down girl
I'm gonna listen to you
You know that you're my girl
And I need to listen to you

Angel boy, you're my pride and joy
Never change. It's the world that's strange
How will you do when they punish you
For being a light that's shining too bright?
Dorian, Dorian, Dorian, Dorian...
I'll be there to smooth your hair
When it all goes down, when you're glory-bound
You will be in that place in me
When your body's gone, I'll keep you safe and strong
Dorian, Dorian, Dorian, Dorian...
Dorian, Dorian, Dorian, Dorian...
