Awaiting the Dove

from A Different Country by Lilac Sheer

	/

lyrics

Water run through our souls
Lead us to who we are
As we live in a fantasy world
Reality crumbles, gets mixed up in a dream

All alone between darkness and light
Who do we pray to, that would make it alright
Makes no difference what you believe in
We're all children of god

I looked at sky with a tear in my eye
As I hoped for the dove to come by
I know in my heart it is bound to come flyin' in time
Hold on to your faith
It'll take you back where you belong, and carry you home
'Cause when you believe then you know you are never alone

It gets harder not living a lie
So practice your honesty every day, every night
Take a look at yourself in the mirror
And learn how to love yourself just as you are

Behind closed doors, between pleasure and pain
Who do we turn to, just to make it ok
It makes no difference what we believe in
As long as we pray

I looked at sky with a tear in my eye
As I hoped for the dove to come by
I know in my heart it is bound to come flyin' in no time
So hold on to your faith
It'll take you back where you belong, and carry you home
'Cause when you believe then you know you are never alone

And if you believe then you know you are never alone
