listen to the mp3
you must know i love you
my hidden signals must clear
but your silence is bewildering
that’s your answer I fear
i gave you my heart some time ago
wanting yours in return
but i can’t fathom your rejection
it’s a lesson i can’t afford to learn
when will you see you love me
when will my wandering end
you’ll run to my arms and I can stop
just being a friend
i was doing just fine tonight
till you walked through the door
now i find it hard to concentrate
as you stroll across the floor
well i steal quick glances across the room
you notice and my heart explodes
i say, “Hello” and “How are you”
but what i really want to know

listen to the mp3
God the battle’s really hard these days
when one falls there’s no one there to take her place
and another leaves this world still lost
some decide it’s too high a cost
God I’m getting tired of this
have the prayers i’ve sent up missed?
You say I’ll sing to You for all eternity
but from where I sit it’s hard to see — why
i want to praise you forever
but i can’t see that far
so i will – just for today
for this day – this day that you have made
I will praise you – just for today
God show me where to turn
lite my soul and let it burn
i miss the fire that raged in me
the warmth, the light others could see
You say You’re here I know You are
but it feels like You’re some distant star
open my eyes to see You’re light
’cause in this darkness I lose my sight
