Lily of the Valley

I hear you calling, Lord

Calling me back home

But Lord it's not my time

Not my time to go

In that moment Lord, my burning embers fade to grey

And a lily of the valley has bowed down for to pray

On my feet again

Lord, I was almost on my feet again

But I gave in to sin

Born to roam and dream

And wander towards the places I have never ever been

But one day hope to be

Where the pain is gone, where only love remains

To be so close and watch it slip away as I just drift from shore

Too much drinking of

And too much thinking of

And too much knowing love, much too little of

On my feet again

Lord, I was almost on my feet again

But I gave in to sin

Now all the lights go down

You tell me "Son, it's time to go"

To "...walk these silent side streets on my own"

But I'm too tired Lord, so deep in my bones to stare into this darkness anymore

No tomorrow

Too much drinking of

And too much thinking of

And too much knowing love, much too little of

On my feet again

Lord, I was almost on my feet again

But I gave in to sin

On my feet again

Lord, I was almost on my feet again

But I gave in to sin
