lyrics

Faded white lines
The pavement moans and cracks
Through fields and broken signs
I walk, just like you walked
But the difference that I see is the dirt just clings to me

The road from Galilee
is paved with failed attempts from sinners like me
But you said follow me instead
and so I carry on though my strength is all but gone

CHORUS
And I felt you there where horizon meets the sky
Just beyond my reach
Just beyond my reach
So I sing it out cuz the only reason why
I'm still on my feet is to pull you close to me

Bare feet on even ground
I can't see gravity, but I know it holds me down
Just like I always feel you there
but still I never know why your children suffer so

CHORUS

CHORUS 2
And I'll be holding on
Because I need you right now
I'll walk until the dawn, oh this road just carries on
So shout it out
And keep me up somehow
Your voice will be my guide, your love inside my eyes

A love that breaks all chains
leaves none alone
restores all joy

A voice that shakes these veins
revives these bones
above the noise

So come on
