Kate Martin - Southern Rain Lyrics
The stars they don't shine like they used to, oh noAnd the night sky it don't complement those stars anymoreAnd the bright moon directs it's glowFar away from those who love itAnd the southern rain is calling out my nameWhen my mother sings she is tired I can tell(you must know why I can't sleep at night)But there's a time for every word to be sung and and eye to close(there's a place in my mind where all dreams take flight)There'll be a point in your life where you see where you went wrong(but they are bound to the ground if only we could set them free)You'll be scared to admit and you'll be unsure of what that isThrow me to the wind and I will goThrow me to the wind and I won't stayCause love is what you had, it's what you lostI know what you're trying to say and what I'm saying to youIs "Not today"I just need to sleepI just need piece of mindYou're the diamond in the oceanWaiting for discoveryAnd I'm the bird who flies above youBeing carried by the windYou see you could not predict the weatherAnd I could not control the timeLand is stable, water fragileHe is weak but we are strongAnd in the midst of my confusionOne thing that I'll know for sureYour love will never fail me, it's never let me down beforeJesus' love never failed meYour love never let me down, oh noI've been so tired, now I'm sleepingI'm sleeping for the first time in a yearI felt the sun rise but I chose to ignoreSo I hurt the ones I loved in returnI'm a captive, I'm a castaway, I'm a foolI'm a victim of the ocean deep and blue
