Copper Wish - Project 86

We drain the water with the babes

To drown the grief we drown the gain

We drain the water with the babes

To flee the scene of our mistakes

Sing the sorrow, we lament

Cast wishes like copper pence into

Ancient fountains of regret

Wishing that we could take it back

But just wait for me

I come not to erase but be

Wait for me

The purpose from the pain

We drain the water with the babes

To drown the grief we drown the gain

We drain the water with the babes

To flee the scene of our mistakes

What if you could take it back?

What if we had never met and we

Annihilate our brokenness?

Would we lose our greatest gift?

But just wait for me

I come not to erase but be

Wait for me

The purpose from the pain

We drain the water with the babes

To drown the grief we drown the gain

We drain the water with the babes

To flee the scene of our mistakes

We won’t drain the water with the babes

In this grief we find the greatest gain

We won’t drain the water with the babes

You were made the purpose from the pain
