Post 857: I Could Be Yours (7/06/00)

      I COULD BE YOURS (07/06/00)

YOU’RE FEELING SO ALONE

STARING AT THE WALL WAITING FOR THE PHONE TO RING, 

BUT NO ONE EVER CALLS

AND THE CLOCK NEVER SEEMS TO MOVE, 

THE TEARS FALL LIKE RAIN DOWN YOUR FACE

AND YOUR HEART YOU DON’T BELIEVE

(I COULD BE YOURS

WHEN THE SKY TURNS TO GRAY 

LET ME BE THE SUN THAT PUSHES THE CLOUDS AWAY

AND ON YOUR DARKEST DAY I COULD BE THERE TO HOLD YOU

THE LIGHT THAT CONSOLES YOU

YET ANOTHER DAY PASSES AWAY AND NOTHING GOES YOUR WAY

BUT I COULD BE YOURS)

THE TEARS YOU CRIED LAST NIGHT UPON YOUR PILLOW NEVER SEEM TO DRY

AND A CLOUDY SKY IS ALL YOU EVER SEE, YOU ALWAYS DOUBT WHAT YOU COULD BE

ALWAYS CHASING A DREAM THAT WILL LEAD YOU TO ME

BUT YOU NEVER FIND YOUR PLACE HERE BESIDE ME

(CHORUS)

LOOKING BACK, THE YEARS OF YOUR YOUNG LIFE HAVE ALL FLOWN BY

AND NOW HERE YOU STAND IN THE PRESENT SEARCHING FOR ANOTHER REALITY

ONE THAT YOU’VE NEVER SEEN

AND IT SEEMS THAT YOUR DREAMS ARE WHAT KEPT YOU ALIVE FOR ALL THIS TIME

(CHORUS)
