1.
She’s melting in your arms tonight You’ve come oh so far just to be where you are So hold her close with all your strength You’ve said it all tonight Please trust more than me It’s just too much weight to bear Find your peace in God above tonight And rid yourself of all your fears Don’t think that I’ll just disappear Slay the hunter in your heart’s heart
2.
Winter 03:37
Winter is better Winter’s so much warmer when I’m with you I don’t even notice I don’t even care if we’ve been spoonin’ This vision went further This vision lasted longer ‘cause we fought for it if you trust in Me I will honor you but we’re not even supposed to be here Son, here is my daughter daughter here’s my son, so don’t be stupid you’ve grown to hate each other but once you hated Me, and we’ve recovered but Father, we’ve broken Father, we’ve been battered by the tempest
3.
The Answer 05:51
Once you found her Did it not destroy you? The thought you let through Did it not at least free you? So look beyond it See who walks alongside It’s Thee who made them Gave His life so you can love her right They came in droves and cluttered your mind And told you, “here is what you’ll find An answer, she’s the answer.” But you placed her where she never belonged As a slave to right out all your wrongs The answer Is she the answer? What made you callous bid so well with your desires So you embraced her But you turned away when she loved you back
4.
Do you see her there with a smile in place? Forever it should stay But it seems like wine by the fireplace Might just have to wait Sooner or later You’re gonna have to tell her You are the shelter, we’re entertainment If You could allow it, then You could take it back She loves You, and she hates You at the same Try to love her and you know you can You think you know yourself But unless you die to your selfish man It’s back where you began So you set yourself a reason For no conclusion or closion But don’t be so sure that You’ll never deny what means the most If you were to lose it all
