Here I stand, I’m feeling empty again
I always seem to feel this way eventually
I don’t understand, I feel like I’ve lost a friend
It’s You the only friend that I need
I can’t ignore You, believe me I’ve tried
I can’t live without Your love inside
Can You speak to me
I know that I’ve been gone
Can You breathe in me
I know that I did wrong
Why did I walk away
And why did You stay
Do You live in me
Day to day
Here I am, I know I shut You out again
Of the rest of this life that I live
If You can, take this heart within
Pour in all the love You can give
‘Cause I’m dieing here, inside of my heart
Knowing it’s my fault that we’re apart
Oh, Lord speak to me
I know that I’ve been gone
Oh, Lord breathe in me
I know that I did wrong
Why did I walk away
And why did You stay
Will You live in me
Day to day
I know You hear me, even when I don’t speak
I know You’re near me, even when I’m weak
I’m crying in my soul…
Won’t You speak to me
Till all the pain is gone
Will You breathe in me
Fix all that went wrong
Though I may walk away
You will always stay
For You live in me
Day to day
I know You live in me
Day to day
