I used to be the one who would long to hear Your voice A child who sought to win his Father's heart But as I carried on, life's got a hold on me Now here
They say that Heaven Is 10 zillion light years away And just the pure at heart Will walk her righteous streets someday They say that Heaven Is 10 zillion
[instrumental]
Every step I take along the way Every hour of every single day Your don't listen to a word I say I stand patiently waiting here You left a message on
Things can't get much weirder This can't get much worse Don't know why you wouldn't kiss me But it's a good thing I asked you first. You were a big strapping
As the rain washes distance from her voice Something stirs beneath us And hope awakens to the calm In the depth of her eyes a promise sleeps Resting
Deep within entrenchments The orders are revealed A final push impending Encoded messages have been received At first light Fires of the enemy dead will

Stepping over two steps closer I sit around wasting time Feel like the poster for a self help line Well me know the truth when we're older For the first
Step out on my corner with my box of rocks Drama covers my hood from blocks and blocks See my homie that I hang with Hit him up with the deuce thumb thang
It's the crack of noon And I sit here watching you sleeping I only wish that I could remember your name But I know it's written on a matchbook somewhere
instrumental
Somewhere inside a soul A shadow is taking over My questions are being answered An act of courage My story is being told Somewhere inside these four
From the first gray light of the morning I've been gone On my journey towards the stars Will I know when I reach the other side The earth so blue it
Give me what I ask for Give me what I long for First light, first light I came to you for refuge Don't leave me to the thieves Don't leave me to my own
Deep within entrenchments The orders are revealed A final push impending Encoded messages have been received At first light Fires of the enemy dead
It?s the crack of noon And I sit here watching you sleeping I only wish that I could remember your name But I know it?s written on a matchbook somewhere
