TAKE IT, LIVE IT, LOVE IT
You ever found that someone
that you haven't found in years
then find yourself out on the edge
of conquering all your fears
Like suddenly there's hope
that you'll finally win this time
and be the man you've prayed about
the straight and narrow kind
Not that you never were before
but now there's just a reason
to be faithful, honest...true
To be not just the nice guy
but the brave and daring gentleman
that's the man inside of you
To choose to take the chance
and expose a giving heart
hoping that it's taken and
not ripped and torn apart
I'll be honest...
I don't know how to lay down
and take the indecision
I don't know how to stand up
to the final inquisition
I don't know how to all define
what's fair in love and war
I don't know how to walk away
when we've walked all this way so far
I don't know how to turn my head
and look the other way
I don't know how to beg at all
I don't know what to say
I don't know how to completely ignore
what my heart is pounding in my head
I don't know how to just be quiet
in all the silence and regret
I don't know how to paint the picture
of what we both could be
I don't know how to communicate
everything that's me
I don't know how to tell you
that I hurt way deep inside
I don't know how to tell you
that we're more than just a ride
I don't know what your thinking
But I know that your sincere
I don't know all the rules
but I do know that I fear
that by screaming in my silence
I'll feel nothing but regret
I don't know how to tell you
that I think your being unfair
cause life its self is but a game
you can only play it if you dare
Time does not wait for a shy
and wishful heart
It rewards those who are courageous
with a choice to play your part
I don't know how to spell out
that this is exactly what I've done
I don't think that it's unfair
to say that I have won
the opportunity to try
and see where this does take us
I don't think it's much to ask you
that you finish what you started
and follow where your heart
was leading you two three weeks ago
I don't know how to tell you
that this is really how I feel
That everything we had going for us
was very true and good and real
I don't know how to ask you
that you not throw it all away
I don't know how to say
'follow up the chance you took'
Lets go out, get lost within the day
Let's sit and talk and pray
Let's laugh and smile and run around
Let's find what's round the bend
Let's figure out if what we have
is all that it could be
Let's take a chance and test it out
Let's take a chance and see.
I don't know how to end this
save for what I've said before
Take some time and pray about it
and if you're still alone
lost in all confusion
don't fret or sweat the details
just sit and pray some more
Be patient and be willing
to follow all your heart
for that is what I am doing
and like I said before
or tried to from the start
'If what you want is wanting more
than what you had before then
just take it, live it, love it'.
It's knocking at your door.
