I HAVE THE TOUCH

Only fifteen miles from shore,
You’d think we’d see the lights by now.
“Something’s wrong”, she said, “For sure….
There’s too much rain pouring down…” down and it’s
Passing over us. The arms of the sea are
Crashing over us. Like an avalanche or a mystery…a mystery.
Faith alone guides us now.
Faith…and the wind is rocking us around.
“Round and round and it’s
Passing over us. The arms of the sea are
Crashing over us. Like an avalanche or a mystery
And I have the touch.
I’m the only one you need.
I have been through these waters and I’ve seen what we’ll see
And there’s a little bit of sorrow…a little bit of pain
But we’ll make it through together
And find ourselves again…it’s all we need.
Rain…rain…come down and wash it all away.
Our inequities are rinsing clean and
All the fear…the hopeless pain and denial
Sweeps into the cold blue below…it’s
Passing over us. The arms of the sea are
Crashing over us. Like an avalanche or a mystery
And I have the touch.
I’m the only one you need.
I have been through these waters and I’ve seen what we’ll see
And there’s a little bit of sorrow…a little bit of pain
But we’ll make it through together
And find ourselves again…it’s all we need.
It’s all in you. It’s all in me. It’s all we need.
It’s all in you. It’s all in me. It’s all we need.
You think you know….you think you know it all….you think you know…you think you
know until you’re caught up in the undertow.
