listen to the mp3
i can’t be smart and i can’t be smooth
i can’t see me from your point of view
i’m only me and i’m afraid
i’m not the man God meant when He made
all this skin and sadness and a heart i just can’t find
i lost it to a girl i can’t get off my mind
He says He loves me, i don’t know why
He says it doesn’t matter how hard i try
i’m only me, i’ll never be more
He says just to drop His name at the door
so she may not love me
but i think i’ll be ok
i’m gonna let her go
till she’s the one that got away

listen to mp3
when everything is noise
clatter crashing on the floor
when i can’t stand the voices
i’ve never needed you more
will you be still
when everything is spinning?
will you be still
when everything is changing?

listen to the mp3
i know, i know i’m playing with fire
it’s a dangerous game to chase desire
and i’m so far away from that pot of gold
i’m already too old
but every night the dreams return
like the flame that always burn
i can’t spend my life just standing by
afraid of trusting an obvious lie
maybe i can make it
i won’t know until i try
this is my chance i’ll take it
and i won’t trust my eyes
maybe i can make it
from here i don’t know which way to go
but if i stop i’ll never know
the closer i get, the clearer the way
i won’t stop in the shade
i must walk this path alone
i cannot get there on my own
i need some hope to hold on to
so i make my way to you

i’m out for proof that you still care
i’d settle for knowing that you’re there
i wish you’d send a sign
i don’t want to doubt you
so i guess my faith is so weak
i must beg you to speak
all you offer me are words
i’ve never really heard you
if you’re everything they say you are
you know the secrets of my heart
the things i mean but cannot say
thank God you never run away
am i too smart to believe
you’re a possibility?
are my eyes so blind to see
what you’ve done for me?
if you made me i’d obey
i would be a fearful slave
but i’d never choose to
love you

listen to the mp3
am i led into the desert
or do i go there on my own?
do i have to swing so hard
to get water from a stone
i can’t see a burning bush
i can’t see your signs
i wish you’d come and tell me
something that i can’t deny
say you love me
tell me i’m beautiful
say you love me
tell me i’m beautiful
tell me i’m worth it.
i would sit right by the fire
they’d ask me and i would deny
and i’d stand back in the corner
till i put a finger in your side
