From Once Was Lyrics - Singles - Deliverance

Unfortunate souls will often say 

We need to cling to yesterday 

An evil there or light to see 

Gives of hope of what might be 

Faith gathered from once was 

Hope gathered from once was 

Peace gathered from once was 

Love gathered from once was 

I dream the past, the burning bridges 

Old photographs, discarded pages 

Unanswered prayers, the childhood endings 

The bitter tears, the new beginnings

The life and times of a child alone 

Searching for love in the cold unknown 

Soul beat and scarred with the truth in sight 

The lessons he's learned in the darkest night 

I dream of youth and unrequited love 

There lies the truth, in what once was 

And through it all I see at last 

The Saviour's hand and all that's past 

Faith gathered from once was 

Hope gathered from once was 

Peace gathered from once was 

Love gathered from once was 

Memory is clear, Saviour drawing near 

Feel my heart embraced, see desire's face 

Here my soul will rest 

I dream the past, the burning bridges 

Old photographs, discarded pages
