Greater Things

If you give up on me now It's just a matter of time before it falls down Then I'll be chasing the lottery And drinking up to sleep I'm a sinner I ain't no saint You've been dragging me out of the darkest ways Because you've always believed that I Was meant for greater things And sometimes I swear I wish that you were right But I keep on walking further from the light There's a fire in my veins And I can't put out the flames When it's time for greater things I was a loner I had no dreams I wouldn't try to soar with these broken wings Until you made me believe that I could reach into the sky If I could jump back into time There's not a single word that I wouldn't rhyme Until I'd written a song so good and flawless as you are So come on darlin' now Don't you slow this down Hand over your heart Keep mine in your town There's a fire in my veins And I can't put out the flames When it's time for greater things And it's time for greater things
