fifty years have ridden off into the sunset
|
|
I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of
the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way
I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while
I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
|
|
I wish I could find the words to tell you
That faith is more than action, more than thought, and more than games
It's a deep-abiding knowledge of the way our world works
To have faith is to understand the universe it frames
It's a certainty that permeates the fabric of our lives
It's a struggle with existence that just cannot be denied
And it radiates with wordless force, lies just behind your eyes
Faith is there when all else has just disappeared
Faith is there when it's all gone black
When the world has you down
And you've fallen to the ground
Faith is the power that draws you back
I know we haven't talked much for a while
It's a problem that I'm searching for a way to turn around
But I hope you know my thoughts and prayers are always on you
That each time I think of you, I hope that you have found
It's a certainty that permeates the fabric of our lives
It's a struggle with existence that just cannot be denied
And it radiates with wordless force, lies just behind your eyes
Faith is there when all else has just disappeared
Faith is there when it's all gone black
When the world has you down
And you've fallen to the ground
Faith is the power that draws you back
Far beyond this mortal land, a castle in the air
Lies waiting for the hopeful and the blind
For those who've loved and lost, heaven's more than just a prayer
It waits for those who are to find
That faith is there when all else has just disappeared
Faith is there when it's all gone black
When the world has you down
And you've fallen to the ground
Faith is the power that draws you back
It's a concept of reality that empowers your belief
Faith is understanding, knowing, that there always is relief
There will be an end to pain, to hunger, tears, and misery
Faith holds the answers and the way to set you free ....
And faith is there when all else has just disappeared
Faith is there when it's all gone black
When the world has you down
And you've fallen to the ground
Faith is the power that draws you back
-David
