Lyrics

0:23I sit alone discontent
0:27Your ears don't hear what I say
0:31After awhile you disconnect
0:34To set you apart from the pain
0:39I walked past you all your life
0:42But there is only one place
0:46Next to you
0:47Where I decide in the presence of your grace
0:54Hide your eyes from what is real
0:57And you don't know what I'll do
1:02Your patterns locked in all these drawers
1:05But only one holds your clue
1:09Watch for people coming through
1:13They don't know where I stand
1:17One foot is by your side and one in another land
1:25I've been down so many roads
1:28As a child too far away
1:32I've been down so many roads
1:35I was traveling too far away and I say
1:55I return from miles away
1:59To find that I didn't know you
2:03I would go where the river flows if I were able to
2:11But I walk by you once again
2:14There is only one place
2:18Next to you
2:20Where I decide in the presence of your grace
2:26I've been down so many roads
2:29As a child too far away
2:34I've been down so many roads
2:37I was traveling too far away
2:42I've been down so many roads
2:45I was traveling too far away
I sit alone  discontent
Your ears don't hear what I say
After awhile you disconnect
To set you apart from the pain
I walked past you all your life
But there is only one place
Next to you
Where I decide in the presence of your grace
Hide your eyes from what is real
And you don't know what I'll do
Your patterns locked in all these drawers
But only one holds your clue
Watch for people coming through
They don't know where I stand
One foot is by your side and one in another land
I've been down so many roads
As a child too far away
I've been down so many roads
I was traveling too far away  and I say
I return from miles away
To find that I didn't know you
I would go where the river flows if I were able to
But I walk by you once again
There is only one place
Next to you
Where I decide in the presence of your grace
I've been down so many roads
As a child too far away
I've been down so many roads
I was traveling too far away
I've been down so many roads
I was traveling too far away
