Dove

from Christmas! by Aaron Strumpel

/

lyrics

You’re a dove that’s been sleeping in the dirt
With a heart for the poor
And a hand for the hurt
And you cry for all your friends
Cause you’re the only one who
Still feels

I want to know a person like you
Who’s not afraid to love the wicked and the poor
I want to know a person like you
Who’s not afraid to touch crooked and the whore

Love the sick // and divorced
Touch the user // and the falling apart

You’re a lamb wearing thorns for a crown
While your words of peace
Are bigger than sound
And you hurt for all your friends
Cause you’re the only one who
Still feels

You're a king born in straw from the field
With a star up above
And a cross for your love
And you came for all your friends
Cause you're the only the one who
Still feels
