"Love Where Are You"

I know love when I see it
Haven't seen it in a while
I've accepted a replica
Waited patient with a smile

I've built walls all around me
Trying to keep my heart in tact
From the times I left it open
And given parts I can't get back

There's no way to explain it
But I know something's wrong

[chorus]
Love where are you
Where you been
You're what caught my eye
What pulled me in
Feels like I'm running on my own again
Not really ever knowing when
I'll find you
Oh, love where are you

Seems grace is just a dying art
We've all taken judgment's hand
Can't trust my brother not to push me down
Every time I try to make a stand

And can you take me as I am
Or were you better all along
I'm with broken sinners, while you're all winners
And you tell me that I'm wrong

And I still don't understand it
Thought love didn't come back empty-handed

[chorus]
Love where are you
Where you been
You're what caught my eye
What drew me in
Feels like I'm walking all alone again
Not ever really knowing when
I'll find you
Oh, love where are you

I want to stomp my feet
And throw my fists
Call it righteous anger
Or ignorance
All the same to me now
There's no way to live this down

Love where are you
Where you been
You're what changed my life
What saved my skin
And I'm dying to hear your voice again

[chorus]
Love where are you
Where you been
You're what caught my eye
What pulled me in
But I don't see you in a single person
God I need you
Oh, Love where are you
