What do I do with this feeling kept inside
What do I do to bring it to the light
How do I know if this is right
How will I know when the time comes to decide
[chorus]
I'm hoping that it goes away
I'm hoping I won't have to deal with it
I'm hoping, I'm hoping
That time will tell the end of it
I'm hoping that I find the truth
That I don't lose a part of my heart
Along with you
I'm hoping
I'm hoping
I'm tethered to you and I don't know why
Is it something genuine or just another heartfelt lie
Cause even with best intentions still in tact
I just can't seem to argue with the plain and honest facts
[chorus]
I'm hoping that it goes away
I'm hoping I won't have to deal with it
I'm hoping, I'm hoping
That time will tell the end of it
I'm hoping I find clarity
That I don't lose a part of my heart
Along with me
I'm hoping
I'm hoping
[bridge]
I want to die to myself in this desire
Lift it up to You, so consuming fire
Can test my heart for what it's really worth
See what You want for me, so I can chase it first
So I can chase You first
I'm hoping for Hope itself to come
And let my heart become undone
I want to chase You as far as these feet can run
To run to whom I really love

ReplyDeleteThank you, Silvia. You're awesome. It makes it so much more fulfilling to know that somebody else is gaining from the things that I write, and to know that you are sharing in the same struggles and revelations as I am really helps to defeat that sense of isolation.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all of the amazing encouragement. It's a gifting for sure. :)
