Stay
02:49

When my heart started
I chose the wrong things
The loves I thought I had
The people I thought would be
Here and last forever
And times I thought would never go away
Oh, how times change
But I hope you stay
I hope you stay
Sceneries change
And the days slip by
The things I feel today
Are gone in the morning
The stories that I've told
Seem old and retelling
I can't even slow the pace
But I hope you stay
I hope you stay
If there's one thing I can't bear to change
One thing that I could never replace
If you don't stay
What am I gonna do?
Make me a promise like I do to you
I hope you stay
I hope you stay
But I hope you stay
I hope you stay

The Appeal
04:11
|

Say the words
Say what I want to hear
Don't let me believe for a second
That you aren't here
It's all or none
Let me not forget your love
Help me remember all that you've saved me from
I cried out for help
I cried out for you to hear me
I remember songs through the night
Weighty words and teary eyes
With my hands up in the air
My lips pushing prayer after prayer
But you kept me waiting
So I sang
Say the words
Say what I want to hear
Don't let me believe for a second
That you aren't here
It's all or none
Let me not forget your love
Help me remember all that you've saved me from
Will this go on forever?
Will I never see your favor again?
Has your unfailing love
Failed for once?
But to this I will appeal
I remember the years and the miracles
And I realize the works of your hands
And so I sang
Say the words
Say what I want to hear
Don't let me believe for a second
That you aren't here
It's all or none
Let me not forget your love
Help me remember all that you've saved me from
I get so tangled up in all of this
Struggling to realize that your love exists
Say the words
Say what I want to hear
Don't let me believe for a second
That you aren't here
It's all or none
Let me not forget your love
Help me remember all that you've saved me from

Too Many Times
04:09
|

Why is it that we start out so nice?
With the long talks and the long nights
Where I can't get no sleep
With that girl on my mind
But six weeks later
I get a phone call
Telling me she's fallen
Out of love
And I don't get it
Am I so pathetic
That I don't know how to love?
Because I've said goodbye too many times
And I've had to wipe and dry out my eyes
This is it, game over
Calling it quits
From this breaking my back
Just to break my heart
If we're going to be finished
Then I don't want to start
So maybe I am falling way too quick
Taking everything she gives me
And making love out of it
Well she started with good intentions
I believe
But good intentions only get you so far
Until she leaves
Until she leaves
Because I've said goodbye too many times
And I've had to wipe and dry out my eyes
This is it, game over
Calling it quits
From this breaking my back
Just to break my heart
If we're going to be finished
Then we're going to be finished, love
I've said goodbye too many times
And I've had to wipe and dry out my eyes
This is it, game over
Calling it quits
From this breaking my back
Just to break my heart
If it's going to be finished
Then I don't want to start

What We May Find
03:12
|

So insecure
I can barely make a move
What I do I do for you
Even when it hurts
So far from sure
My life has gone and you
Are the reason this is true
We'll make it work
I can't live this way
But if we stand and hold our weight
We may find a love that's true
I'll lay down my life for you
We've been distant for too long
This can happen if we're strong
This pain is only temporary
Tell me this can work
I can't live this way
But if we stand and hold our weight
We may find a love that's true
I'll lay down my life for you

Eyes And Ears
03:27
|
|||
I'm running into a wall
And I fear that I made it
Should I be calling it quits?
Because I can't really break this
Down, down to the ground
Pick me up just to spin me around
I can't read you like I could before
I can't read you like I could
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I can't believe what I'm hearing
Don't you tell me this was just a phase
And it'll be gone in a couple of days
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I can't believe what I'm saying
I'll wait it out for as long as you need
But I'm begging you, don't tell me to leave
Am I climbing over something
That I should just be walking away from?
My judgement's slipping further
And I don't know what I should be standing on
But it's down, down to the ground
You pick me up just to spin me around
I can't read you like I could before
I can't read you like I could
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I can't believe what I'm hearing
Don't you tell me this was just a phase
And it'll be gone in a couple of days
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I can't believe what I'm saying
I'll wait it out for as long as you need
But I'm begging you, don't tell me to leave
Are you ready to walk out on me?
We were more than friends
More than just a trend
And now you're telling me
That this is who we should be?
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I can't believe what I'm hearing
Don't you tell me this was just a phase
And it'll be gone in a couple of days
I can't believe what I'm seeing
I can't believe what I'm saying
I'll wait it out for as long as you need
But I'm begging you, don't tell me to leave

Footsteps Unseen
03:23
|

Footsteps unseen
But in my heart I can see 'em
And I know that you're walking
Straight
Back to me
But it's up to me to let you come
Or run away from your kingdom
But I'd rather stay
And let you let me
Become the man that I'm supposed to be and you know
That I can lose my way
But with a firm hand you'll guide me
Direction you'll supply me
So I
I don't worry about you
Because it's me
I'm the cause of all my problems
And it's me
I'm the one who runs away
And it's me
I'm the one who don't wanna solve 'em
And it's me
It's me you came to save
Well I don't believe it
Do you know who I am?
The ways that I've wronged you
The things I wish that I didn't do
Do you see who I can be?
I'm so sorry for everything
And every song I know that I shouldn't sing
But you tell me
Who I can be if I let you let me
Become the man that I'm supposed to be and you know
That I can lose my way
But with a firm hand you'll guide me
Direction you'll supply me
And it's me
I'm the cause of all my problems
And it's me
I'm the one who runs away
And it's me
I'm the one who don't wanna solve 'em
And it's me
It's me you came to save
Well I don't believe it
A love that comes from deity
Creator's arms to rescue me
No, I
I don't believe it
The prayers that you answer me
The ways that you inspire me
You're all
All I see
And you're all
You're all I believe
All I believe
All I believe
And you're all
You're all I believe

Good Due Time
02:31
|
|||
I can't stand to see you sad
I know it hurts, I understand
But I know the good Lord'll make things right
He always does in good due time
But I worry so about you girl
When things hurt you, it hurts me, too
So hold my hand
And hold it tight
We can make it through
Make it through tonight
And as long as you're smiling
And I'm keeping you from crying
My heart will keep on chugging on alright
I know life gets hard and people get sick
Things fall apart and we wanna quit
But I'll be here if ever you call
Know that I care for you, know you belong
So hold my hand
And hold it tight
We can make it through
Make it through tonight
And as long as you're smiling
And I'm keeping you from crying
My heart will keep on chugging on alright
Girl, wipe those tears from out your eyes
Things are getting better, things'll be alright
And I promise you through thick and thin
The Lord'll come through, you can hold my hand
So hold my hand
And hold it tight
We can make it through
Make it through tonight
And as long as you're smiling
And I'm keeping you from crying
My heart will keep on chugging on alright
And as long as you're smiling
And I'm keeping you from crying
My heart will keep on chugging on alright
