How long before they make me a devil?
How long before you won't let me hold you?
How long before love is conditional?
How long before my worth drops out of view?
Now, in love and peace I rock you to sleep.
How long before you think me unworthy?
Now, my baby I hold, sweet dream so deep.
How long before I must earn your mercy?
But I know our love, greater than they say.
A pure bond joins us, unchained, free of claim.
We'll strive together for this love to stay.
Oh please, sweet child, hold me free of this pain.
Born free of judgement, faith brings other to life.
How long before faith makes me other, your strife?
