Bedroom Hymns

This is as good a place to fall as any

We will build our alter here

Make me your Maria

I'm already on my knees

You had Jesus on your breath

And I caught Him in mine

Sweating out confessions

The undone and the divine

Cause this is his body

This is his love

Such selfish prayers

And I can't get enough

Oh, whoa, whoa, yeah

I can't get enough

Spilled bitter tears

I did this for you

Spilling over the aisle

The black and the blue

Sweetest submission

Drinking you in

The wine and the women, the bedroom hymns

'Cause this is his body

This is his love

Such selfish prayers

And I can't get enough

Whoa, whoa, yeah

I can't get enough

I'm not here looking for absolution

Because I found myself an old solution

I'm not here looking for absolution

Because I found myself an old solution

This is his body

This is his love

Such selfish prayers,

I can't get enough

This is his body

Oh, this is his love

Such selfish prayers,

I can't get enough

I can't get enough

Whoa, yeah, whoa
