Lyrics

In my heart is where I long for you
In my smile, I search for you
Each time you turn and run away
I cry inside, my silly way
Too young to know anymore
In my world, the devil dances and dares
To leave my soul just anywhere
Until I find peace in this world
I'll sing my song everywhere
Too young to know anymore
The wind covers me cold
And starry skies all around my eyes
Far behind the city moans
Well worthy of the people there
Oh, the psalms they'd love to hear
So please, let me sing a song for you
One I've known so very long
Please, let me sing a song for you
To help your day along
Oh please, could you find the time?
In my heart is where I long for you
In my smile, I search for you
Each time you turn and run away
I cry inside, my silly way
Too young to know anymore
In my world, the devil dances and dares
To leave my soul just anywhere
Until I find peace in this world
I'll sing a song everywhere
Oh please, could you find the time?
The wind covers me cold
Starry skies all around my eyes
Far behind the city moans
Well worthy of the people there
Oh, the psalms they'd love to hear
So please, let me sing a song for you
One I've known so very long
Oh please, let me sing a song for you
To help your day along
Oh please, could you find the time?
