Love Has Come For You
Lyrics by Edie Brickell
She had a child by that man from the bank
He was married with a son
All of her family said, “Give that child away
“Try to erase what you’ve done”
But when she held that sweet boy in her arms
None of their words meant a thing
And when she held that sweet boy in her arms
She heard the quiet angels sing
Love, love, love has come for you
Love, love, love has come for you
He grew up strong with a heart full of dreams
And a good mind to make them come true
He never gave her a day’s worth of grief
She lit up when he came into the room
Love, love, love has come for you
Love, love, love has come for you
And she believed till the day that she died
He was given from Heaven on high
And on that day, he was right there by her side
When she heard the angels one more time
Love, love, love has come for you
Love, love, love has come for you
