Somebody Like You

And when the parade ends then what
Memories some good some bad some regrets
Songs I remember lyrics I can forget
But your love is a song that eases my troubled mind
You promised to never leave me I doubted you
because my rebellious ways running is all I knew
I wanted a separation you go your way
I go my way so it played out for awhile
But my hard times never left me they ran with me
yet you ran with me when others didn’t
That’s never happened before 
I am not easily understood 
I don’t easily understand 

Like Jonah the storms came
until there was nowhere to run
yet you ran with me when others didn’t
You gave my hand a squeeze 
Inviting me to eat with the tax collectors and sinners
I joined you for some bread and wine
I never knew somebody like You
Your love was not a lie like so many before
And You kissed my soul like no other
