Paper Thin

(albüm: Empty Hands and Heavy Hearts - 2011)

Take take these words and sing them for me
They fill up all these pages I have been writing in
But lately they are becoming, they are becoming
So paper thin, so paper thin

These pages turn; they're full of empty words
I tear them out just to start it, start it again
Still I lie awake at night
Unsure of what is to come
I am coming undone

Take take these words and sing them for me
They fill up all these pages I have been writing in
But lately they are becoming, they are becoming
So paper thin, so paper thin

All this time
I tried to sing, tried to sing a song
That my ears had never heard
With words I could not speak

Give me the melody that my heart longs to sing
Now I am starting to see, I'm starting to see
That this fire you stir inside
Is greater than I know
You're greater than I know

Take take these words and sing them for me
They fill up all these pages I have been writing in
But lately they are becoming, they are becoming
So paper thin, so paper thin

All this time
I tried to sing, tried to sing a song
That my ears had never heard
With words I could not speak

You are the one
That gives me words
That shine a light into darkness
And gives strength to the hopeless
My words mean nothing
Unless they come from You
Who sang the stars into place
And whispered life into my soul

Oh oh, you whisper life into my soul
Oh oh, you whisper life into my soul
Oh oh, you whisper life into my soul
