Fight To Keep

I left my heart on the top of a window sill

It fell apart when the winds pulled it down

On the ground where the sun drove the colors deep

In the summer heat, the colors seem to drown

But you pulled up the colors with a simple tune

You breathed a song and you dusted off the sand

You put the pieces on your sleeve, you gave my heart to me

It looked so pretty that I fell upon my knees

And from the ground I saw your face

You spoke of love and you sang of grace

But come the night when the light is gone

Its in the dark that my deeds are done

What I've done in darkness, I must turn away

This mended heart was meant for so much more

Though the wind is telling me that it's ok

I'll stand my ground till I hear the kingdom come

So I will fight to keep the fire burning in the night

For I found words to keep me still

And though I'm prone to go and make the same mistakes

I hear your voice calling out my name

I'll fight to keep the fire burning in the night
