I'm patiently waiting for a push or a pull while the colors catch my eye...Of the breath-taking magic that happens at dusk. I'm content just to look at the sky. The moments are caught up in webs of the longings of something to hold. A memory, a lover, a past regret, or the fear of growing old. The time is near, it's becoming clear. The signs are everywhere. Even though I've been blind I've been led by the light to the cross that binds me to love. I'm leaning in! Into the light! I'm leaning in! Into the light! I'm leaning in. Feeling alright. I'm leaning in, and I'm led by the light. Yeah, I'm led by the light. Oooooh, Oooooh.

Oh mama! What should I do? I'm walking blind. Trying to find my way. Looking for love cause I miss it so much, And I found him along the way. She said ... Baby take it slow. You can let him hold you, But not too close. Cause you gotta take your time! Enjoy the long talks, The slow walks, And the sweet red wine. Take your time. Take your time. Oh mama! What should I do if he tells me he loves me and I know I don't feel the same? And I know that he'll hurt if I don't say those words. Tell me, what should I do in this case? She said ... Babygirl take it slow. There ain't no shame in just letting him know ... That you gotta take your time! Enjoy the long talks, The slow walks, And the sweet red wine. Take your time. Take your time .... Take your time, it'll all be fine. Take your time and keep your peace of mind. Babygirl, take it slow. There ain't no shame in just letting him know ... That you gotta take your time. Enjoy the long talks, The slow walks, And the sweet red wine. Take your time. Take your time.

I'm slowly walking. Just passing through. Looking for nothing cause I know I want you. You may think I'm lying, but I tell you the truth. It's hard to stay in this city without you. So come back around now. Our love was so true. Now I'm stuck in this city with a heart stuck on you. It's been such a long time, but my heart hasn't changed. I've been searching for answers, but I've only found blame. My soul gets so lonely and my prayer's been the same, but I pray to move on now cause I can't bare the pain. Lord help me move on now. Our love was so true. And I'm stuck in this city with a heart so blue. Lord help me move on now our love was so true. And I'm stuck in this city, I'm stuck in this city with a heart stuck on you. With a heart stuck on you.

It may not be my place, I hope I'm not out of line. But that pretty thing you put your faith in may not be the best thing in life. You can never trust a red sky at morning. Sailors take warning. And don't be surprised when the tide starts to rise. Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting. So be sure you're looking deeper. You're looking for meaning. You can never trust a red sky at morning. Sailors take warning. And don't be surprised when the tide starts to rise. Wind blows. Fire burns. Liars lie and the humble learn. Wind blows. Fire burns. Liars lie and the humble learn. You can.never trust a red sky at morning. Sailors take warning. And don't be surprised ... You can never trust a red sky at morning. Sailors take warning. And don't be surprised when the tide starts to rise.

This time of year always takes me back as soon as the chill in the air hits my skin. I can see your smile. This time you're walking towards me and I'm ready to embrace, but the memory fades and the love remains. This leftover love tears me apart, around the time that autumn starts. God, please put this thing to rest cause my bleeding heart won't stay inside my chest. I'm lost in time for a moment. Won't you please bring me back? Show me hope, for my future is uncertain. At least there was love in my past. This leftover love tears me apart, around the time that autumn starts. God, please put this thing to rest cause my bleeding heart won't stay inside my chest. Even if! have nothing else, I have your songs to get me through this hell. They fill the hollow spaces and send me back to places while nostalgia creeps inside my mind. This leftover love tears me apart, around the time that autumn starts. God please put this thing to rest cause my bleeding heart won't stay inside my chest. Cause my bleeding heart won't stay inside my chest.

She always loved to watch the ocean. The color blue and waves of white seemed to go and go forever the way the love she hoped for might. She always love to see a clear sky. The color blue with clouds of white. No shades of gray. no disappointment, no painful words , no need to fight. And then he came from out of nowhere, an answer to those dreams she had. She knew it would go on forever, a thing this good could not go bad. But as time passed the sky grew cloudy. The ocean beat upon the shore. The color blue, it seemed so pretty until he stormed out of the door. Now the color blue runs down the paper from teardrops falling on the words. She had imagined their life together since she was a little girl. But when she opened up the letter her life was torn apart. Her one and only, one and only, had broken her heart. Oooooh. Now the color blue runs down the paper from teardrops falling on the words.

For the longest time he couldn't sing. He had too much weight he was carrying. He couldn't let it go, instead he held it close. The weight became part of his soul. And he convinced himself that he was comfortable. The weight of the words people say. They can drag you down until you're face to face with the enemy of your dreams. So be careful what you believe. Cause your heart's special to me. She started listening to some dreadful things about the time she started chasing dreams. She couldn't let it go, instead she held it close. The weight became part of her soul. And she convinced herself that she was comfortable. The weight of the words people say. They can drag you down until you're face to face with the enemy of your dreams. So be careful what you believe. Cause your heart's special to me. The weight of the words people say. They can drag you down until you're face to face with the enemy of your dreams. So be careful what you believe. Cause your heart's special to me.

I'm on the losing side of feeling. And I'm waiting for a season that pulls me through missing you. But so far, it's been so hard biding time for better weather. So far it's been so hard when everything I want and everything I don't have is you and I together. I'm just this side of healing. My mind is searching for a reason you had to go I loved you so. But so far it's been so hard biding time for better weather. So far it's been so hard when everything I want and everything I don't have is you and I together. How can my heart keep going? When the distance between us keeps growing ... so far. It's been so hard. Biding time for better weather. So far it's been so hard when everything I want and everything I don't have is you and I together.

My head's up in the stars looking down on where you are. With your baby and your lady hoping that they fixed your broken heart. Cause I did some damage, I'm not proud to say. But I'm praying your new life brought better days. Lord, send me an angel to help carry this weight. I know I don't deserve one due to the hearts I tend to break. I've taken some long shots in my day, now I'm hoping this prayer can be caught at close range. I hope you still get the thrill of driving fast cars. And you're taking care of you maw and paw, I remember just how sweet they are. I did some damage, I'm not proud to say. But I'm praying your new life brought better days. Lord, send me an angel to help carry this weight. I know I don't deserve one due to the hearts I tend to break. I've taken some long shots in my day, now I'm hoping this prayer can be caught at close range. I've been trying to move on. Been stuck in the past for too long. It's funny how regret seems to find you, like a parasite looking for something to cling to. And Lord knows I don't have time to wallow in the what-­could-have-beens, to witness the pain all over again. Lord, send me an angel to help carry this weight. I know I don't deserve one due to the hearts I tend to break. I've taken some long shots in my day, but I'm hoping this prayer can be caught at close range.

Hello, my friends. It's me again. Singing a song from my heart. I look around and I see beauty. Honestly I haven't been looking very hard. When's the last time you really stopped to sit and breathe? Without distractions from all of the world wide webs that you weave? Don't be afraid to face the truth. God knows it's up to me and you to show the rest of the world that instead of war, it should be love that we're all fighting for. Hello my friends. It's me again. Singing a song from my heart. I look around and I see beauty. Honestly I haven't been looking very hard. When's the last time you really stopped to sit and breathe? And instead of yourself, your prayer was for your brother in need? Don't be afraid to tell the truth. Lay down your pride and I will too. Forgive the hate shown out of fear. Keep your faith and remember that God is near. When's the last time you really stopped to sit and breathe? Without distractions from all of the world wide webs that you weave? Don't be afraid to face the truth. God knows it's up to me and you to show the rest of the world that instead of war, it should be love that we're all fighting for. It should be love! It should be love! It should be love that we're all fighting for, that we're all striving for, that some of us are dying for. Oh, it should be love.
