Lyrics to Away From You
Say, you got a minute friend?
Because I'd like to tell you something
You may think nothing of it,
but wait--you're gonna love it
What if I told you I held the one true philosophy?
Would you hear me out
Or just turn your back and laugh at me?
Lord, I just don't understand
This strange creature You call man
Who thinks he lives by his own hand, but I know
I know, I know, I know
There's no life away from You
(There's no life away from You)
There's no life away from You
(There's no life away from You)
So I will remain still and silent,
For fear of the words I may say
And am I still in my defiance,
When I'm trying so hard to obey?
There's no joy away from you
There's no peace away from you
Because I'd like to tell you something
You may think nothing of it,
but wait--you're gonna love it
What if I told you I held the one true philosophy?
Would you hear me out
Or just turn your back and laugh at me?
Lord, I just don't understand
This strange creature You call man
Who thinks he lives by his own hand, but I know
I know, I know, I know
There's no life away from You
(There's no life away from You)
There's no life away from You
(There's no life away from You)
So I will remain still and silent,
For fear of the words I may say
And am I still in my defiance,
When I'm trying so hard to obey?
There's no joy away from you
There's no peace away from you
