Selling Faith Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You and me and all this love
Ring the bell 'til summer comes
Calling out from a long, long way
We'll hold it down for one more day

[Pre-Chorus]
And when that day turns into night
We'll dance with the devil in the pale moonlight

[Chorus]
And I know I ain't been righteous
But there ain't nowhere to turn
I'm falling, but I don't know how far down
I don't need to understand it
I just need a guiding light
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now

[Verse 2]
There's a road that I can't explain
It draws the line between love and pain
And now I'm not sure where it goes
And there ain't no signs to help me know

[Pre-Chorus]
But if you tell me to, I'll drive all night
Just let me know when I arrive
[Chorus]
Because I know I ain't been righteous
But there ain't nowhere to turn
I'm falling, but I don't know how far down
I don't need to understand it
I just need a guiding light
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now

[Bridge]
Right now
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
Because I know I ain't been righteous
But there ain't nowhere to turn
And I'm falling, but I don't know how far down
I don't need to understand it
I just need a guiding light
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now

[Outro]
If you're selling faith, then I'm buying right now
If you're selling faith, I'm buying right now

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
