Strength Within You Ch-2

There is fire in your tenderhearted spirit You are the stars, Sprinkled in the ebony sky Search for a dwelling place most charitable Don’t run away… I’ll take some time to recover from a broken heart I’ll remain in my cage-like dorm I heard you screaming for help I hope this rope will do you some good To pull you up to cloud seven Or cloud nine…that would be sublime I wish you could figure things out Faster than lightning strikes Attempting to reveal to you the best route no one has stepped foot in Trust me, I know where I’m going from here Nudge me if you are starting to build up fear In your heart…pounding vigorously with repetition God has sent me a profound vision Let us seek the Lord while He may be found Disregard the anxiety and let Him get the best of us And He will surely lighten up our loads There is strength within you So, why are you so scared of the dark? There is strength within you Look up to the eagle for a fruitful flight There is strength within you You got to dig deep to find the gold There is strength abiding in you When I’m with you…we need to get along As long as He notices our teamwork I’ll be your flashlight in the dead of night I’ll be there by your side forevermore We’re on this bumpy ride Don’t lose faith in the long run You have strength inside and out There is strength burning in your heart no doubt Restoring might in your heart ~~~ In your heart ~~~ I stick close to you Like a dog, dependent on you… Where are you going, partner? Somewhere new? Anyways, good luck on future findings The answers are tucked in your heart In your heart You got to earn back your strength I’ve seen your miracles and talents – so majestic That strength is within you... Within you… I treasure it completely You complete me, sweet darling Will you let me have a slice of it? That would be totally legit! =]

and suddenly there was this awesome chase that ensued in the middle and then went back to an awkward calm once it slithered to the ending. It's epic, Dave. You must be very proud of this hopeful yet heartbreaking piece.
