Back in God's Hands

I looked at your face I saw that all the love had died
I saw that we had forgotten to take the time
I saw that you couldn't care less about what you do
Couldn't care less about the lies

You couldn't find the time to cry
We forgot about love
We forgot about faith
We forgot about trust
We forgot about us

Now our love's floating out the window
Our love's floating out the back door
Our love's floating up in the sky in heaven
Where it began back in God's hands

You said that you had said all that you had to say
You said baby it's the end of the day
And we gave a lot but it wasn't enough
We got so tired that we just gave up

We didn't respect it
We went and neglected it
We didn't deserve it
But I never expected this
Our love floated out the window
Our love floated out the back door
Our love floated up in the sky to heaven

It's part of a plan
It's back in God's hands

Nelly Furtado indeed - just a great song. With haunting lyrics. You're right about John Martyn, Ken - what a sad loss.
