[Verse 1]
The loaded guns and poisoned darts
He always aims for the heart
Knows how to hurt me, knows how to win
His love's a kick in the shins
I never thought we'd go together
But now I never say never
Cause when he falls, I see the boy-child
I can't help but sympathize so

[Chorus]
I will rescue him, I will rescue him
Each time he knocks I let him in when he wants it
Time and time again, time again
I give my forgiveness (seventy times seven)
I will rescue him, I will rescue him
No matter what the cost is, when he wants it
Time and time again, time again
I give my forgiveness (seventy times seven)

[Post-Chorus x2]
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 I’m on your side
My patience won’t tire with you
5, 6, 7 baby up to heaven
I’ll never be tired of you

[Verse 2]
They see my silence, see my restraint, uh
They think I'm crazy for waiting
For the sun to rise without an end
The only see his unfaithfulness
But I have golden eyes on my man
I see his soul, battle the sin
They think I'm wasting my time
Making a home in this calamity
But I can't let go

[Chorus + Post-Chorus ]

[Bridge]
Making love to the song you sing
I don’t care if you aren't deserving
Cause I know that your heart is hurting
But no one can ever help the way I mean

[Chorus + Post-Chorus]

[Outro]
In the dark of the heart is a martyr
Makin' it da di go don don
In the dark of the heart is a martyr
Makin' it...
