Rebel Tide

I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon Mapping out a course for both my shoes I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it Try to hold the world together in my mind Try to make it snow in mid-July Try to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it Praying like a child on Christmas Eve Father won't you raise the sun early If you do this one last thing for me I'll be your soldier And it takes you by surprise Like a rebel tide Like lightning from the sky He's been searching for you And it splits you like a knife The moment that it strikes When you realize That He's looking for you I try to put my hopes above my doubts Try to keep my thoughts above my mouth I feel like a satellite just dying to leave my orbit I take another shot at faking love Miss it by a mile and then some My insides are thirsty for whatever drink you're pouring Praying like a child on Christmas Eve Father won't you raise the sun early I ask an awful lot of both my needs just waiting for you And it takes you by surprise Like a rebel tide Like lighting from the sky He's been searching for you And it splits you like a knife The moment that it strikes When you realize That He's looking for you It takes you by surprise Like a rebel tide Like lighting from the sky He's been searching for you And it splits you like a knife The moment that it strikes When you realize That He's looking for you Ohhhhhh!
