Walking Away

(album: Cries Of The Past - 2000)

The day I left you was the worst mistake I ever made
Was ready to become something I didn't need you dragging me down
Thought your love just wasn't enough
My hair combed, nice shoes tied tight
Was ready to conquer life
Help unwanted I can do this on my own and then I found myself wounded
Tripping over myself, falling and scraping my knee
Sadness fills for I know I've failed
Why did I leave scared to go back
Hoping you'll take me in with open arms
But also know the hurt I've caused
The breeze of angel wings
Standing there amidst of lowers of every being
Tears grow and orchestra begins to play
What a beautiful day, why are you alone
Run child it's time for you to go home
Wounded spirit face in the dirt
I cry out for you to take me in
Your heart holds me close, and
I look up to face this world which so scares me
Faith in you loneliness just seems to fade
The man once inside now a child walking in your footsteps
Hoping held leaves under feet from the trees of fall
Listening to autumn's call
A deep breathe to continue on, fragile
Depending on you Christ carries me the rest of the walk
