Hey there Lord it's me
|
I wondered if you're free
|
Or not asleep
|
This just won't keep
|
It seems I just don't see
|
|
Why all the things we asked
|
Or prayed would come to pass
|
Have gone unheard
|
Like silent words
|
That slip into the past
|
|
'Cause Lord they're not schemes
|
Can't you tell dreams
|
Why do you let them slip by
|
Never even tried
|
|
It isn't you don't hear
|
There's far too many tears
|
Or can't you feel
|
Are we unreal
|
To one who knows no peers
|
|
You say we must pay dues
|
But still I am confused
|
I need to walk
|
And with you talk
|
Instead of to statues
|
|
'Cause Lord they're not schemes
|
Can't you tell dreams
|
Why do you let them slip by
|
Never even tried
|
|
'Cause you take all the fame
|
But who'll accept the blame
|
For all the hurt
|
Down here on earth
|
Unnecessary pain
|
Surely you must care
|
Or are you only air
|
Built in our minds
|
When we're in binds
|
Never really there
|
|
Can we be tired of you
|
Is that something we're allowed to do
|
For even the blind change their views
|
And it's time we tried something new
|
|
So I've pled my case
|
I'll now pull my escape
|
Didn't mean to doubt
|
What it's all about
|
Seems I forgot my place
|
|
But if you find the time
|
Please change the story line
|
Or give a call
|
Explain it all
|
I'll even leave the dime
|
