in my dreams


God gave me these eyes I stare at you with
He sent me a faith that I often miss
God gave me these arms, so empty, I reach
He gave me this mouth, i refuse to speak

licking my lips, i look at the sky
will i carry this burden until i die?
my thorn is the flesh, stinging so sweet
i always fall down at your feet

it’s your very existence that makes me struggle
is my hope from God or from me?
it’s the sun on your face, or even the moon
i close my eyes to see you, in my dreams

God granted me breath that i waste on wishes
He sent me a peace that I fight
God gave me this mortal mind that lets
your face keep me up almost every night

You sing a song of love on the way
with wisdom on loan i advise you to pray
maybe God will show you what to do
maybe He’ll tell ya i’m in love with you

it’s your very existence that makes me struggle
is my hope from God or from me?
it’s the sun on your face, or even the moon
i close my eyes to see you, in my dreams
