The Sound

I used to lust for love

Until I learned

It only comes when it wants

(Maybe) when you ain’t searching

(Maybe) when you ain’t certain

(Maybe) when you determined

You probably won’t deserve it but the person probably perfect

In their imperfections

I pray to God to send you overflowing blessings

Everything you need and more life all instead of lessons

This life we live is given so to us as a gift

But I know when it rains it pours

Tears they fall

Reaching out your hands

It seems as though there’s no one there at all

So, you find some hold on to...

And seems a little easier

I pray that God’ll stop the rain from coming down

If I couldn’t see nothing before, please show me now

Allow me not to shut out anybody that you sent for me

Let me hear the sound of your voice minus everything

Let me hear the sound

(Speak to me in words that I can comprehend)

I just need sound

(Help me see that you're the one I can depend on)

Let me hear the sound

(Help me in my lowest places)

I just need the sound of your voice

I just want to see your face
