"You Know Where to Find Me"

I've been looking through lyrics all night. Found some bits and pieces I really like and I also found a new song by Matthew West. I love the lyrics.

"You Know Where to Find Me" by Matthew West
“I saw your sky fall down today
Suddenly turn from blue to gray
Till one by one the raindrops
Turned to tears upon your face
Wish there was something I could do
Wish I could ease the pain for you
But I've never felt so helpless
It's like you're drowning right in front of me
And I'm reaching out but you can't see
There's something holding on to you so tight
So I guess this is all I'll say to you tonight

Chorus: If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I will be waiting where I've always been
If you ever need me
You know where to find me
I have never left you,
I'm where I've always been
Right by your side
Right by your side

If the whole wide world is on your back
If the strength you need is the strength you lack
If you're in a crowd but all alone
If you can't stay here but you can't go home
If you can't answer all the why's
'Cause you're too tired to reach that high I want you to remember”

Here's some of the snippets that I found that I also like:

“I try so hard but I always fall short. So I’ve faced the truth of my weakness. There’s nothing good that I can bring forth, but I stand in the strength of Your presence. I’ve wasted time always trying to face things alone, but I wait here now and I lay it all down.”

“You're staring in the mirror and you’re looking back at me. Somehow you've replaced yourself and don't like what you see. You've been a slave far too long to what other people think. So you bend and you break and you lose along the way.”

“I want to stand out. I wanna stand tall. I wanna be myself even if it means I won’t fit in at all. I wanna be real. I wanna be me. Cause everything I am is who I’m meant to be. I was meant to be free.”

“Why are we so quick to hide originality? We try and try to fit inside a false reality. We're all the same when it comes to putting on the face. And it’s such a shame. Oh it’s such a waste. Cause what makes us beautiful is what makes us stand out.”

“I want to be beautiful and make you stand in awe. Look inside my heart, and be amazed. I want to hear you say, that who I am is quite enough. I just want to be worthy of love and beautiful.”

“I must say that my first inclination was to save my reputation. Try to blend right back into the crowd. But the more and more I tried to hide the less and less I could deny the truth was screaming at me clear and loud.”

“This rock is tied around my ankle. This thorn is buried in my skin. I wonder why I have to struggle. But then again…if I wasn't drowning I wouldn't need you to save me and if I wasn't broken I wouldn't need you to heal me.”
