West Texas Wind

It's dark, and it's quiet in my house tonight Babies are all gone to sleep It's hard to imagine a better life Than the one I get to lead I had a glass of wine, but my mind is clear These walls, they talk to me Don't blink an eye, you're a young man now But you won't always be My blood and my bones, my heart and my hands They try to hold all of this in But I'm running to You like West Texas wind Singing, God, I need You, oh, how I need You God, I need You again I've learned to hide my fear in my bones My body don't shake like the kids But I'm easily scared and often confused I rarely know what I did I've made mistakes and even worse than that I've hurt the ones that I love I wish that peace could find me here But it seldom ever does My blood and my bones, my heart and my hands They try to hold all of this in So, I'm running to You like a West Texas wind Singing, God, I need You, oh, how I need You God, I need You again I'm in the shadows of Heaven and earth Maybe they should be the same My earthly body is bound and conflicted And I'm left feeling the pain This house is not our only home You can't protect love with stone God, I know You can hear me, so, please, come near me I'm ready to let the world go My blood and my bones, my heart and my hands They try to hold all of this in So I'm running to you like a West Texas wind Singing God, I need You, oh, how I need You God, I need You again
