songs

So... I love quoting songs in my away messages. They don't always correlate to how I feel. But in the past few hours, there have been so many songs I'd like to quote, I don't know where to start, so I'm putting a bunch in here instead.

Pilgrim how you journey/ On the road you chose/ To find out why the winds die/ And where the stories go/ All days come from one day/ That much you must know/ You cannot change what's over/ But only where you go/ One way leads to diamonds/ One way leads to gold/ Another leads you only/ To everything you're told/ In your heart you wonder/ which of these is true/ The road that leads to nowhere/ the road that leads to you/ Will you find the answer/ in all you say and do?/ Will you find the answer/ In you?/ Each heart is a pilgrim/ Each one wants to know/ .../ .../ Pilgrim, in your journey/ You may travel far/ For pilgrim it's a long way/ To find out who you are ~Enya

Who can say where the road goes,/ Where the day flows, only time?/ And who can say if your love grows,/ As your heart chose, only time?// Who can say why your heart sighs,/ As your love flies, only time?/ And who can say why your heart cries/ when your love lies, only time?// Who can say when the roads meet,/ That love might be in your heart?/ .../.../ ...// .../ .../ .../ .../ .../ ... ~Enya

I don't know how to say this,/ I don't know where to stand,/ I don't know where to put my feet,/ Or where to put my hands./ I've got them in my pockets,/ My fingers are freezing cold,/ They're wrapped around a ticket stub/ That's four weeks old,/ And I don't know how to say this.// I think we've figured out/ This world is bigger than you and I./ We've exhausted our wealth of knowledge/ And have no more answers for mankind.// We've had every conversation in the world/ About what is right and what has all gone bad,/ But have I mentioned to you that this is all I am,/ This is all that I have.// I'm not trying to judge you./ No that's not my job. / I am just a seeker too,/ In search of God.// Somewhere somehow this subject became taboo. / I have no other way to communicate to you. / This is all that I am./ This is all that I have.// And we've had every conversation in the world/ About what is right and what has all gone bad,/ ... / ...// .../ .../ .../ ...// .../ .../ .../ ...// .../ .../ .../ .../ ...// .../ .../ Just know that I care for you/ And I’m speaking from my heart ~Sarah Groves

I've done every devotional/ Been every place emotional/ Trying to hear a new word from God/ And I think it's very odd,/ that while I attempt to help myself/ My Bible sits upon my shelf/ With every promise/ I could ever need// Chorus: ... // Verse 2 // Bridge ~SG

I don’t want to leave here/ I don’t want to stay/ It feels like pinching to me/ Either way/ And the places I long for the most/ Are the places where I’ve been/ They are calling out to me/ Like a long lost friend// It’s not about losing faith/ It’s not about trust/ It’s all about comfortable/ When you move so much/ And the place I was wasn’t perfect/ But I had found a way to live/ And it wasn’t milk or honey/ But then neither is this// Chorus: I've been painting pictures of Egypt,/ leaving out what it lacks/ The future feels so hard,/ And I wanna go back!/ But the places that used to fit me,/ Cannot hold the things I've learned/ Those roads were closed off to me/ While my back was turned!// The past is so tangible/ I know it by heart/ Familiar things are never easy/ To discard/ I was dying for some freedom/ But now I hesitate to go/ I am caught between the Promise/ And the things I know// chorus// If it comes too quick/ I may not appreciate it/ Is that the reason behind all this time and sand?/ And if it comes too quick/ I may not recognize it/ Is that the reason behind all this time and sand? ~SG

Hello Lord, it's me your child/ I have a few things on my mind/ Right now I'm faced with big decisions/ And I'm wondering if you have a minute, cuz// Chorus: Right now I don't hear so well/ And I was wondering if you could speak up/ I know that you tore the veil/ So I could sit with you in person/ And hear what you're saying but/ Right now, I just can't hear you.// I don't doubt your sovereignty/ I doubt my own ability to/ Hear what you're saying/ And to do the right thing/ And I desperately want to do the right thing// Chorus// And somewhere in the back of my mind/ I think you are telling me to wait/ And though patience has never been mine/ Lord, I will wait to hear from you/ Oh Lord, I'm waiting on you// Chorus// Right now, I think you're whispering ~SG
