I'll Sing A Hymn (You Came To Me)

Charlatans UK · Up At The Lake [2004]

I'll sing a hymn

To praise you all

I found the lord

And he came to my home

I'll paint the ladder

I sail the breeze

I am so very different to all of these



You came to me,

And I took you in,

I've been in trouble ever since back then

I've been a bum

I've been a few

But I don't wanna leave this world without you



You play the black and the red turns up

You can't get all your answers from your favourite cup

Life is a moment

an apple thats bruised

I'm giving up more than my heart can lose



You came to me when I needed you the most

We all like to cover up our wounds with salt

I've been a bum

I've been a few

But I don't wanna leave this world without you



I found my love five years ago



You came to me and you found my soul

You came to me, my only friend

You took care of my suitcase then



You came to me,

And I took you in,

I've been trying to finish before I begin

I've been a bum

I've been a few

But I don't want to live in this world without you
