lyrics

LYRICS:

Lonely nights awake, if you’ve been crying,
And you’re Looking for the dream, to ease your dying.
Searching for the answer,
Trying to find a way to make it be.
There is a cloud, in the Summer sky,
Smiling at you, you could be flying so high,
Lie on the ground, listen to your heart,
Stop running around, you’ve been trying,
Trying too hard.
Just stop your crying, call out to God,
Cause you’ve been trying too hard.

You’ve got to open your heart to the Son.
He shines His love on everyone.
Open your heart, and let the dove,
Fly right in, and find a home.

Standing in the dark, and there’s no breathing.
And You’re looking for the door, to believe in.
Love has come to free you.
Take the way and find eternal life.
There is a rain, falling from the sky,
Easing the pain, He’ll wipe the tears from your eyes.
Stand in the Son, give Him your whole life.
He’s the only One, you’ve been trying,
Trying to hard.
Just stop your crying, and call out to God
Cause you been trying too hard.

You’ve got to open your heart to the Son.
He shines His love on everyone, yes He does,
Open your heart, and let the dove,
Fly right in, and find a home.
Yeah
