Walking out alone
The night fits like a stone, inside a boot heel
Hot and cold winds blow
And no one’s here to know, the way that I feel
The corner I once knew
Brings me into view ag-ain
So I could stay out late
Find new bones to break
But th-en, I’d be dragging home admit-ing
~Chorus~
I am because You are I Am
I recognize, clearly I see
I am because You are I Am
I am in You, and You are in m-e
Spent too many days
Devising many ways, trying to escape You
Played too many r-oles
Dug too many holes, just big enough to f-all into
And I could linger here
Hoping to disappear in excuses
Come morning’s shining face
I’d be crawling to the place I call home
Where first You cut me loose a-nd
~Chorus~
(2X)
(Spoken)
The places that I’ve carried You, I wouldn’t take a dog
Stop, and calmly think of that
Tear this church down to its cornerstone, and build it up again
Build me up again
Build me up ag-ain
~Chorus~
(2X)
You are
Are
Yes You Are
You are in me
I a-m because You are
Bec-ause You are I am
I a-m
I a-m
Never let me go
(2X)
I-I a-am
Stay with You, near You
Near You I am
Because of who You are, I a-m
