Derek Webb - I Am Redeeming This Guitar lyrics

I am redeeming this guitar
By reimagining who we are
Who you are to me and who i wish to be
For you

If i cannot be the one to hold you in my arms
I will find a way to love you as we are
But i may never sleep, just chasing a melody
Something sweet enough to heal
Your every scar

So i am redeeming this guitar
Though i am wishing on a star
In every moment of my grief choosing you
If this is now the choice
Whose options break our hearts
The lesser evil all to clear
If i can’t have all of you
I’ll take what i can get
And if the things we believed
As kids were true
Could you believe it all for me
'cause i would believe it all for you

While i am redeeming this guitar
Though i will always bear the scar
Of who you are to me and who i wish to be
For you
