The twinkle lights on the back porch at night Make me smile and I feel I'm alright Do they do the same for you, now? You flew across the big, wide sea Finding out what the world can be I'll be waiting here for you, now Who knew growing up could be this hard You say you'll pray and you're not that far I would do the same for you, now Who knows where we'll be in a year So we'll take it in stride And walk without fear, no fear Our time has passed but the impact will last Miles apart, but you're still in my heart Do you feel the same for me, now? The twinkle lights on the back porch at night Make me smile and I feel I'm alright

Ocean City 02:28
Living here in Ocean City The sky is not always so pretty But sitting here with you Can brighten up my view Watching all the people Scurry from the rainfall But we don't have to hide 'Cause we are safe inside We'll just wear our sweaters 'Cause everything feels better Sitting on the porch We love this kind of weather Watching all the people... And though inside we stay And we can see the sky is gray I don't care what they say "Cause to me it's a beautiful day Watching all the people... Rain, rain go away Come again another day Without you it's not the same So until then we will say Watching all the people...

October sky, you lie awake in your bed You cannot escape the thoughts that swirl in your head Your mind reels back, what could you have said instead? The night closes in and with it this feeling of dread Just keep breathing, just keep breathing The sky has grown colder, and now you no longer call Can we go back to the summer, back to the start of it all Why didn't you tell me all of these things that scared you If you had taken the time, you would have seen I was scared too Just keep breathing, just keep breathing Lift up your head And dry your eyes This too shall pass And the sun will rise Just keep breathing, just keep breathing All my silver dreams bring me to you

In The Night 04:53
You came to me in the night Whispered and said it would all be alright You stretched out your hand, stretched it out to mine Foolish, I took it and trusted your lie Your sweet and tender voice and the twist in your smile Keep holding my gaze with your eyes all the while I wanna look away but you're calling my name You're all that I know so I am falling back in Come eat of my bread and drink of my wine You know you cannot resist for all time The way to life with me is fast and free Your soul is empty, come and fill it with me It surely can't harm me to just look and see One little taste of fruit and that's all I need The serpent is cunning and making it seem Just for tonight and then tomorrow I'm clean Wisdom is calling out my name instead "Wake up sleeper! Rise from the dead!" His soft and gentle whispers speak truth to my heart Finally I trust You and we'll never be apart
5.
Those nights, etched in my mind I go there to help me get by When I'm lonely and when I'm cryin' out I have been from place to place And I have lived to show my real face In so doing, we can glimpse His love Wand'ring, looking for home How long must I roam Until I realize you've been here all along Where is home? Home is when I'm with you Home is when I'm with you
6.
You still have me You still have me Amidst all this change and fear You are ever near You still love me You still love me I am so unworthy But daily You show me You still have me You still have me
