Elvis Costello - God Give Me Strength lyrics

(words sung by the character in the movie given in brackets) Now i have nothing, so god give me strength 'cause i'm weak in her [his] wake And if i'm strong i might still break And i don't have anything to share That i won't throw away into the air That song is sung out This bell is rung out [this belle is wrung out] [he] she was the light that i'd bless [he] she took my last chance at happiness So god give me strength, god give me strength I can't hold onto [him] her, god give me strength When the phone doesn't ring And i'm lost in imagining Everything that kind of love is worth As i tumble back down to the earth That song is sung out This bell is rung out [he] she was the light that i'd bless [he] she took my last chance at happiness So god give me strength, God if [he'd] she'd grant me [his] her indulgence and decline I might as well wipe [him] her from my memory Fracture the spell as [he] she becomes my enemy Maybe i was washed out like a lip-print on his shirt See, i'm only human, i want him to hurt I want him I want him to hurt [instrumental] Since i lost the power to pretend That there could ever be a happy ending That song is sung out This bell is rung out [he] she was the light that i'd bless [he] she took my last chance at happiness So god give me strength, god give me strength
