Saint Ferdinand Lyrics by Lauren Daigle Ft. Jon Batiste & Natalie Hemby
[Verse 1]
They said I wouldn't last long, but here I am
They said the spirits are strong, but I got 'em to bend
Oh, life gave me lessons that I still question, oh
They said I wouldn't last long, but here I am
[Chorus]
Oh, Saint Ferdinand, my wonderland
Wild and strange, where vagabonds play
Saint Ferdinand, not what I planned
For my faith, but I'm gonna stay
These streets may not look pretty
But I see angels walkin' in the city
Saint Ferdinand, my dear friend
Times may change, you can't keep me away
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, no, no
[Verse 2]
They say what doesn't kill you will make you strong
But I know there's a purpose in the struggle whеn it all goes wrong
Oh, 'cause I see smiles undеr streetlights instead of chaos in the night, oh
They say what doesn't kill you will make you strong
[Chorus]
Oh, Saint Ferdinand, my wonderland
Wild and strange, where vagabonds play
Saint Ferdinand, not what I planned
For my faith, but I'm gonna stay
These streets may not look pretty
But I see angels walkin' in the city
Saint Ferdinand, my dear friend
Times may change, you can't keep me away
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, no, no
You can't keep me away
Hey, yeah
[Bridge]
Maybe I (Maybe I) loved you (Loved you)
More than you loved me
Maybe life's (Maybe life's) got a way (Got a way)
Of bringin' you to your knees
[Chorus]
Saint Ferdinand, my wonderland
Wild and strange, where vagabonds play
Saint Ferdinand, not what I planned
For my faith, but I'm gonna stay
These streets may not look pretty
But I see angels walkin' in the city
Saint Ferdinand, my dear friend
Times may change, oh
Saint Ferdinand, my dear friend
Times may change, you can't keep me away
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, no, no
You can't keep me away
Hey, yeah
