Under the Overpass
Under the overpass
As the river's rushing by
It looks like floating glass
Flying through the night
In all my solitude
I'm learning I can love
When just the thought of You
Has brought me far enough
And now I finally realize
I could live a million lives
And never get it right
There's a calm resting in Your arms
And knowing that no dark
Could ever touch Your light
Oh and You call me back
Under the overpass
Tonight
Under a thin disguise
I'm as broke as anyone
I've been depraved and deprived
A slave to all that I can't overcome
But surely You are here
With me in this place
And You don't want my years
My months, my weeks, You're asking for today
And now I finally realize
I could live a million lives
And never get it right
There's a calm resting in Your arms
And knowing that no dark
Could ever touch Your light
Oh and You call me back
Under the overpass
Tonight with fires kindled in my heart
Like they have never been before
As I befriend all of my stars
And start to knock on Heaven's door
And I assemble all my scars
And I lay them at Your floor
For You to hold
Oh I'm here for You to hold
And now I finally realize
I could live a million lives
And never get it right
There's a calm resting in Your arms
And knowing that no dark
Could ever touch Your light
Oh and I'm going back
Under the overpass
Tonight
As the river's rushing by
It looks like floating glass
Flying through the night
In all my solitude
I'm learning I can love
When just the thought of You
Has brought me far enough
And now I finally realize
I could live a million lives
And never get it right
There's a calm resting in Your arms
And knowing that no dark
Could ever touch Your light
Oh and You call me back
Under the overpass
Tonight
Under a thin disguise
I'm as broke as anyone
I've been depraved and deprived
A slave to all that I can't overcome
But surely You are here
With me in this place
And You don't want my years
My months, my weeks, You're asking for today
And now I finally realize
I could live a million lives
And never get it right
There's a calm resting in Your arms
And knowing that no dark
Could ever touch Your light
Oh and You call me back
Under the overpass
Tonight with fires kindled in my heart
Like they have never been before
As I befriend all of my stars
And start to knock on Heaven's door
And I assemble all my scars
And I lay them at Your floor
For You to hold
Oh I'm here for You to hold
And now I finally realize
I could live a million lives
And never get it right
There's a calm resting in Your arms
And knowing that no dark
Could ever touch Your light
Oh and I'm going back
Under the overpass
Tonight
