Three Times Denied Lyrics — 38 Special

Breaking bread,pouring wine,
Speaking mysteries to stretch my mind
I failed to follow
The meaning Of 'flesh in the bread' that I swallowed
Dipping bread in a dish
Calling out a traitor
I'm hoping you'll explain this sooner or later
I'm dizzy with confusion
In the midst of a dream awaiting conclusion

Chorus:
Three!
Times!
Denied!
Thought I was strong but it seems I was wrong
Now I see, since now I've

Three!
Times!
Denied!
Your name I'm stained with shame
This wretchedness becomes my fame

Your accusation plagues my mind
Your prophecy leaves me horrified
Denied you never would be,
Of all of us it would never be me
To break your heartand make you moan
Forsake your name leave you alone
With the sting of a cowards lie
The signed decree that declares you die

Chorus

Nightmares run through my brain
Cold sweat covers me like a sickening stain
In this place between asleep and awake
I shake from the cold and the fear of heartbreak
And in the glow of the fire
I turn into a liar
To scared to say 'I know'
Like a sheperdless sheep I run and I weep As I hear the cock crow

Chorus

You said three times
My son do you love me
And I said three times
'You know that I do'

You said three times
My son do you love me
And I said three times
'You know that I do'

You said three times
My son do you love me
And I said three times
'You know that I do'

Chorus
