lyrics

Verse 1:
I watch you walk your hundred steps or so
down the alley down the way
your green over sweater-whatever it's called
hides the hints of grey

I think I'm falling

Every cliche clearly taking hold
What the hell's going on?
The frenchman's song tells me 'bout my mind,
he's says it's blown and your incredible

You're incredible

Chorus:
And then I see his arm
wrap around you
And then I know, this honor's not mine

But then I see, his heart
is not wrapped around you
So then a part of me, allows mine.

Verse 2:
The privilege of the small of your back
Is extended to my hand
Your skirt kisses the floor as it twirls
with the rhythm of the band

I love us dancing

Let your tears fill your empty cup of tea
As you talk of broken dreams
Your soul, your heart, your finger all are still bare
After all was not as it seemed

I want to run hard after you

Chorus:
And then I see you heart
filled with anger
Wanting to break him for you broken dreams

And then I see my heart
filled with longing
Wanting to give you all those dreams.

Verse 3:
I see you scared sitting on that bed
your future so unknown.
Our distance closing with these writings sent
but my heart is still not shown.

I so enjoy you.

I still don't know, I still don't know, I don't,
I can't--not right now at least
But I trust Him in these musings--
in this salvation--where I find rest.

I find my rest
