You moved like mercy
Then left like rain
You never had to hurry
To turn the room around
One look across the evening
And my pride came falling down
I knew that kind of beauty
Would not stay in my hands
You move like mercy
Soft, but you cut deep
You love like a promise
Too holy to keep
I still feel the rhythm
Of what we used to be
You moved like mercy
Now mercy won’t move me
I hear you in the bassline
Low under my skin
Every groove remembers
Where your body had been
Some love don’t shout
It just changes the air
You move like mercy
Soft, but you cut deep
You love like a promise
Too holy to keep
I still feel the rhythm
Of what we used to be
You moved like mercy
Now mercy won’t move me
You moved like mercy
Then left like rain
