Alli Rogers - Closer To The Moon lyrics

rate me

Sydney says that nothing is "just" anything

She doesn't like to use the word when she prays

I guess trusting is the hardest part of having faith

It's dangerous to hope that things will be okay

Well maybe fog and fear keep our eyes from seeing clear

I think Sydney could be right, she could be right

But if the stars that shine are in any way a sign

I think someone's out there putting up a fight

Someone's right here holding us tonight

Frederick rarely hears the voice of God

He says the silence is the answer most of all

When the world has explanations for every miracle

How else would we have ears to hear him call?

It's not a steady rain, it's more a longing or a pain

It's in the aching that he knows there's something more

Well I have never heard even a single spoken word except the rhythm of a wave upon the shore

Like watching dancers through a crack in the door

Well my grandpa says commitment is the key to love

Fifty years of sometimes twilight, sometimes dawn

He says there were the years he wasn't sure about

But the love he chose was worth the pressing on

Well I'm a river's flow, some days I'm fast some days I'm slow

I think Grandpa could be right, he could be right

Some days I fill the edges, then I'm shallow and pretentious

It all depends upon the rain I got that night

I should never base my faith upon my sight

I must decide where I am flowing, decide where I am going

So when I'm full of deep unknowing I'll still see

When the silence gets accusing, when I'm winning or I'm losing

Does assurance come from choosing to believe?

If the stars that shine are in any way a sign

I think someone's out there putting up a fight

Someone's right here holding us tonight

Someone must be shining down that moonlight
