Sydney says that nothing is "just" anything |
|
She doesn't like to use the word when she prays |
|
I guess trusting is the hardest part of having faith |
|
It's dangerous to hope that things will be okay |
|
Well maybe fog and fear keep our eyes from seeing clear |
|
I think Sydney could be right, she could be right |
|
But if the stars that shine are in any way a sign |
|
I think someone's out there putting up a fight |
|
Someone's right here holding us tonight |
|
Frederick rarely hears the voice of God |
|
He says the silence is the answer most of all |
|
When the world has explanations for every miracle |
|
How else would we have ears to hear him call? |
|
It's not a steady rain, it's more a longing or a pain |
|
It's in the aching that he knows there's something more |
|
Well I have never heard even a single spoken word except the rhythm of a wave upon the shore |
|
Like watching dancers through a crack in the door |
|
Well my grandpa says commitment is the key to love |
|
Fifty years of sometimes twilight, sometimes dawn |
|
He says there were the years he wasn't sure about |
|
But the love he chose was worth the pressing on |
|
Well I'm a river's flow, some days I'm fast some days I'm slow |
|
I think Grandpa could be right, he could be right |
|
Some days I fill the edges, then I'm shallow and pretentious |
|
It all depends upon the rain I got that night |
|
I should never base my faith upon my sight |
|
I must decide where I am flowing, decide where I am going |
|
So when I'm full of deep unknowing I'll still see |
|
When the silence gets accusing, when I'm winning or I'm losing |
|
Does assurance come from choosing to believe? |
|
If the stars that shine are in any way a sign |
|
I think someone's out there putting up a fight |
|
Someone's right here holding us tonight |
|
Someone must be shining down that moonlight |
