|
Where there is grief, there will be hope |
|
And if ever a hand is in need, know that I'll be holdin' on |
|
Know that the peace that comes from above |
|
Is the same everlasting love |
|
Remember me whenever you're all alone |
|
And if it helps you to sleep know that I'll be looking on |
|
Know that the peace that you dream of |
|
Is the same everlasting love |
|
You know I've watched you carry all this weight upon your shoulders |
|
As if no one understands what you go through |
|
But with all the might in you, believe what I say is true |
|
When I say that I will never ever leave you or forsake you |
|
So you just reach out as far as you can |
|
Should the whole world just stare in disbelief |
|
Know that I'll take hold of your hand |
|
What your heart feels is what you sing of |
|
Is the same everlasting love, everlasting love, everlasting love |
|
When the darkness filled the urgent sky |
|
And the tears welled up in the corners of my eyes |
|
And the sun would shine for the pourin' rain |
|
Wondered if I'd ever see daylight again |
|
When the stars protest at the moon's refrain |
|
And I told myself I'd surely go insane |
|
And the Earth kept turnin' at an alarmin' pace |
|
And I couldn't talk my heart out of joinin' the race |
|
I remember a time I couldn't close my eyes |
|
I would lie awake dispairin', don't know how many nights |
|
Afraid of death that my chest would give way to the fear |
|
Pulled the covers over my head and I cupped my ears |
|
In attempt to escape the deafening sounds of silence |
|
In attempt to escape these constant visions of violence |
|
And with death as close as it could possibly get |
|
Heard a voice in the distance sayin', "Cece not yet" |
|
Then suddenly the darkness gave away to the light |
|
And I threw off the covers as I closed my eyes |
|
Just in time to feel your spirit grip my body like a glove |
|
And I knew in that moment that it was your |
|
That it was your everlasting, lasting love |
|
I said it was your everlasting love, yesterday and today |
|
Forever more it will remain, even now it's still the same |
|
'Cause my love will never change, know that the peace |
|
That comes from above is that same everlasting love |
