Clumsy Songtext
von Chris Rice
Clumsy Songtext
Think I′d have it down by now
Been practicin' for thirty years
I should have walked a thousand miles
So what am I still doin′ here? Yeah
Reachin' out for that same old piece of forbidden fruit
I slip and fall and I knock my halo loose
Somebody tell me, what's a boy supposed to do?
I get so clumsy
I get so foolish
I get so stupid
And then I feel so useless
But You′re sayin′ Ya love me
And You're still gonna hold me
That Ya wanna be near me
′Cause You're makin′ me holy
Still makin' me holy, yeah
Gonna get it right this time
I′ll be strong and I'll make You proud
Prayed that prayer a thousand times
The rooster crows and my tears roll down again
You remind me Ya made me from the dust and I can never, no never, be good enough
And that You're not gonna let that come between us
′Cause I get so clumsy
I get so foolish
I can get so stupid
And then I feel so useless
But You′re sayin' Ya love me
And You′re still gonna hold me
And that Ya wanna be near me
'Cause You′re makin' me holy
Still makin′ me holy, yeah
(From where I stand, Your holiness is up so high, I can never reach it) no
(My only hope is to fall on) Jesus
'Cause I get so clumsy
And I get so foolish
I can get so stupid sometimes
And then I feel so useless
But You're sayin′ Ya love me
And You′re still gonna hold me
And that Ya wanna be near me
'Cause You′re makin' me holy
I get so clumsy
And I get so foolish
Oh, I can get so stupid
And then I feel so useless
But You′re sayin' Ya love me
And You′re still gonna hold me
Oh, and that Ya wanna be near me
'Cause You're makin′ me holy
(Still makin′ me holy)
(Keep makin' me) holy, yeah
Been practicin' for thirty years
I should have walked a thousand miles
So what am I still doin′ here? Yeah
Reachin' out for that same old piece of forbidden fruit
I slip and fall and I knock my halo loose
Somebody tell me, what's a boy supposed to do?
I get so clumsy
I get so foolish
I get so stupid
And then I feel so useless
But You′re sayin′ Ya love me
And You're still gonna hold me
That Ya wanna be near me
′Cause You're makin′ me holy
Still makin' me holy, yeah
Gonna get it right this time
I′ll be strong and I'll make You proud
Prayed that prayer a thousand times
The rooster crows and my tears roll down again
You remind me Ya made me from the dust and I can never, no never, be good enough
And that You're not gonna let that come between us
′Cause I get so clumsy
I get so foolish
I can get so stupid
And then I feel so useless
But You′re sayin' Ya love me
And You′re still gonna hold me
And that Ya wanna be near me
'Cause You′re makin' me holy
Still makin′ me holy, yeah

Oh, and that Ya wanna be near me
'Cause You're makin′ me holy
(Still makin′ me holy)
(Keep makin' me) holy, yeah
