Her faith it heals, her mind protects In fear of love her heart erects A wall of stone to keep away The visitor her heart expects Her virtue will not let her stray To thoughts of him or let replay The memories edging at her heart By night she'll kneel down to pray "Oh please Oh God set me apart Give me strength, a brand new start" Her logic, though, is deeply flawed As love is strong but not too smart Each day she's building her facade And always keeping him abroad By night beside her bed she'll laud Love's absence in the name of God

Absence
Her faith it heals, her mind protects In fear of love her heart erects A wall of stone to keep away The visitor her heart expects Her virtue will not let her stray To thoughts of him or let replay The memories edging at her heart By night she'll kneel down to pray "Oh please Oh God set me apart Give me strength, a brand new start" Her logic, though, is deeply flawed As love is strong but not too smart Each day she's building her facade And always keeping him abroad By night beside her bed she'll laud Love's absence in the name of God
