[Verse 1] He said yesterday you paid for your mistakes Pray for me, my time is here Demanding as the grave but love is stronger than death And grace has made your amends For what I do today remains forever Remember, redemption holds you now [Chorus] I wish it showed much time I wish it showed much time If love is a crime, let me do my time If love is sin, let me waste away [Verse 2] But he walks with me in my memories In the lingering scent of golden trees The wind speaks for a moment, I breathe I remember all that is done Red tears shed from the blood of his fears Redemption, he holds me, his love like wildfire Like these words in my skin from this ink, from this pen Remember my love, the story we write [Chorus] I wish it showed much time I wish it showed much time If love is a crime, let me do my time If love is sin, let me waste away tonight [Bridge] History rewritten Eternity waits in every wave, it never ends The story we write, and it's family [Chorus] I wish it showed much time I wish it showed much time If love is a crime, let me do my time If love is sin, let me waste away I wish it showed much time You're chained by love If this is my crime, I accept what is mine If love means death, let me die tonight [Outro] Tonight
