Twinkle Lights

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

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...

Silver Dreams
04:26

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

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

Where Is Home
04:10
|

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

You Still Have Me

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
