Hey, I’m talking to you
With your head down
Goodnight darkness
Good morning late setting moon
The tides are changing because of you
Now that everything’s changing
Hope again is born new
And, dust shakes away
As light severs trapped love loose
My eyes open again to truth
I became so comfortable pacing my steps away from you
I forgot what I was running from or even running to
But, now that I’m so tired and breathless
I realize how far my restless legs took my blistered feet away from you
And, how deep my careless heart left my soul so bruised
Hey, I’m not finished talking
About how delicate love can move
Or how quickly it can prove you wrong
Or what it really means to stand silent
In the midst of wisdom’s truth
Though your axis may wobble
Nothing can shake it loose
If you’re planted in a foundation
Dug wide and deep
And anchored tightly to truth
I became so comfortable pacing my steps away from you
I couldn’t feel the agony of my soul missing you
Wishing again to be securely tied to you
In an early morning meadow
Underneath a late setting moon
Hey, I’m talking to you
Wake up Old Adam
Hey, I’m talking to you
Turn yourself around
I became so comfortable pacing my steps away from you
I forgot what I was running from or even running to
But, now that I’m so tired and breathless
I realize how far my restless legs took my blistered feet away from you
And, how deep my careless heart left my soul so bruised
