Two Wooden Beams

Josiah Queen

Lyrics
Ooh, oh

What is love? What is His name?
Who is His son? Is He okay?
Or was it all a part of His plans?
The thorns on His brow, the nails in his hands

I'm not perfect and purchased by blood
I gave Him nothing and He gave it all
All the words in the world aren't enough
'Cause I can't define, can't deny Your

Love, it bleeds
It's whipped, and it's bruised, it was hung on a tree
All for me
Love is the blood stains on two wooden beams

Where is love? Where did it go?
Lately, it seems nobody knows
In a world where money's the game
We traded true love for pocket change

I'm not perfect that purchased by blood
I gave Him nothing and He gave it all
All the words in the world aren't enough
'Cause I can't define, can't deny Your

Love, it bleeds
It's whipped, and it's bruised, it was hung on a tree
All for me
Love is the blood stains on two wooden beams

Lord knows I've tried
But I can't describe
No I can't define, can't deny oh

Love, it bleeds
It's whipped, and it's bruised, it was hung on a tree
All for me
Love is the blood stains on two wooden beams

Love, it bleeds
It's whipped, and it's bruised, it was hung on a tree
All for me
Love is the blood stains on two wooden beams

Love is the blood stains on two wooden beams
On two wooden beams
