Rick Springfield - Act of Faith

Lyrics

I tell you honestly: don't you go and throw your heart away

I know it's so hard to do

You've got to let go when you want to hold on

I know how much you miss him; celebrate what you had

Don't cry about the things left unsaid

It'll do no good

You look for mercy and a meaning somewhere

But you know that the hurting won't go

Till you walk through the fire

It's gonna take an act of faith to stand up and face the day

It's gonna take an act of faith; nobody can make you stay

It's gonna take an act of faith

Maybe love will find it's way back into your life

Here's my heart; my love is in it

Here's my heart; my love is in it

Stand up; don't you fall

You just take good care of where you are

You're thinking life's through with you

That's not what he'd want or what you should do

I know you loved him, baby; celebrate who he was

I know you know you've got to go on and live your life

Go down to the river of the spirit that runs through you

And lay yourself down in the healing waters

It's gonna take an act of faith to stand up and face the day

It's gonna take an act of faith; nobody can make you stay

It's gonna take an act of faith

Maybe love will find it's way back into your life

Love is a healer

There is no purpose served in holding on

Love is a healer

There is no understanding why

Love is a healer

There is no sin in you that brought this to your door

My love - it just is

(In memory of Bobby Brookes)
