[Verse 1] She called me up on a Sunday As the sun was going down I could hear it in her voice A sort of hollow, heavy sound She said I need to sell the ring And return the wedding dress I buried my skies beneath my makeup I buried beauty in the mess And Ive got nothing left to give [Chorus] You dont have to be his Jesus You dont have to bleed or break for him You dont have to be his Jesus You dont have to carry all his sins When he beats you up and drags you down You dont have to wear that crown Let Jesus be Jesus to him Let Jesus be Jesus to him [Verse 2] When we were little girls And the world was at our feet We worn crowns and lived in castles And daddy played the prince to be Now love dont come that easy And this is hard for me to say Any girl can fall in love But it takes a woman to walk away Youve got so much life to live [Chorus] You dont have to be his Jesus You dont have to bleed or break for him You dont have to be his Jesus You dont have to carry all his sins When he beats you up and drags you down You dont have to wear that crown Let Jesus be Jesus to him Let Jesus be Jesus to him [Bridge] If you cant do it for yourself Then do it for me And if you cant do it for yourself Then do it for the little girl you used to be If you cant do it for yourself Then do it for me And if you cant do it for yourself Then do it for the little girl you used to be [Chorus] You dont have to be his Jesus You dont have to be his Jesus You dont have to carry all his sins When he beats you up and drags you down You dont have to wear that crown Let Jesus be Jesus to him Let Jesus be Jesus to him [Outro] She called me up on a Sunday As the sun was going down
