Soft as a sigh

Sitting here down by the river
Reading your lines
Thoughts make me shiver
I can't do this alone
I might have lost my soul
I find myself longing
Longing for too long

Though we agreed
To meet by the water
It's been a while
So why don't you bother
To be here with me
Waiting through life's roughest times
I'm lost in the story
You wrote about my life

So tell me why
The river feels so dry

Though I cannot swim
Though I feel like drowning
Waves are rolling back
And I can't hardly breathe
The times I couldn't feel
Oh I've stopped counting
I believe

It must be too deep
'Cause I can't see the bottom
You taught me to swim
But in time I've forgotten
To move like You did
To keep my head up high
I should walk on water
My gaze fixed on the sky

Can You show me how
Cause I can't feel You now

Though I cannot swim
Though I feel like drowning
Waves are rolling back
And I can't hardly breathe
The times I couldn't feel
Oh I've stopped counting
I believe

Make this water flow
Bring it back in motion
Let it move again
Move into a sea
And my tears of joy
They will form an ocean
I believe

So show me how
Cause I can't feel You now

Suddenly
Out of the blue
You showed up
I didn't expect this from You
No hard wind, nor thunder in the sky
But Your presence soft
Your presence soft as a sigh
But Your presence soft
Your presence soft as a sigh
