God Will
Love's Dilemma: God's Forgiveness vs. Human Resolve
Lyrics
Who keeps on trusting you
Reflecting on the trust someone receives despite a history of betrayal.
When you've been cheating
Acknowledging past instances of unfaithfulness.
Spending your nights on the town
Describing the act of spending nights away from home, possibly in pursuit of pleasure.
Who keeps on saying
Identifying someone who continues to express love despite the partner's unfaithfulness.
That she still wants you
Indicating ongoing desire and affection even after the person has been disloyal.
When you're through running around
Highlighting enduring love despite the partner's history of wandering.
And who keeps on loving you
Pointing out continued love in the face of lies and deceit.
When you've been lying
Addressing the partner's dishonesty and false statements.
Saying things ain't what they seem
Noting the partner's tendency to distort the truth.
Well God does but I don't
Expressing a personal decision not to love or forgive like God does.
And God will but I won't
Stating that God will forgive, but the speaker won't.
That's the difference between God and me
Emphasizing the contrast between the speaker's stance and God's forgiveness.
God does but I don't
Reiterating the speaker's unwillingness to love or forgive like God.
And God will but I won't
Affirming that God is willing to forgive, but the speaker is not.
That's the difference between God and me
Reemphasizing the difference in forgiveness between the speaker and God.
So, who says she'll forgive you
Raising questions about forgiveness, missing, and remembering, possibly from a third person's perspective.
Says that she'll miss you
Indicating promises of forgiveness, missing, and cherishing memories from someone else.
And dream of your sweet memory
Highlighting the emotional aspect of remembering sweet memories.
Well God does but I don't
Reaffirming the speaker's unwillingness to love or forgive as God does.
And God will but I won't
Stating God's willingness to forgive in contrast to the speaker's stance.
That's the difference between God and me
Underlining the difference in forgiveness between the speaker and God.
God does but I don't
Restating the speaker's refusal to love or forgive like God.
And God will but I won't
Affirming that God is willing to forgive, but the speaker is not.
That's the difference between God and me
Reiterating the contrast in forgiveness between the speaker and God.
