From You

© Anne Sumner 2016

You called my name as the darkness fell
And the lights were on the hill
I have a window to answer you
But I don't know if I will

And your gaze is like a lamp they light
When the shadows grow too much
And I've been here laying low inside
And hiding from your love

And I was waiting there
Scared to care
Over and over and
Let my worth to you
Be cast in stone
'Cause it's all I've known from you
From you

And I've walked up and down these streets
The leaves beneath my boots
Autumnal epiphany
Of what I've meant to you

And I was waiting there
Scared to care
Over and over and
Let my worth to you
Be cast in stone
'Cause it's all I've known from you
From you

Cast a flame in between us two
And wonder as it grows
What people see when they look at you
When they don't know what I know

And I was waiting there
Scared to care
Over and over and
Let my worth to you
Be cast in stone
'Cause it's all I've known from you
From you

What you said when you said it was love
What you said when you said it was love
What you said when you said it was love
- it's coming to get you
What you said when you said it was love

What you said when you said it was love
What you said when you said it was love
What you said when you said it was love
- it's coming to get you
What you said when you said it was love
- it's coming to get you

And I was waiting there
Scared to care
Over and over and
Let my worth to you
Be cast in stone
'Cause it's all I've known from you
From you

What you said when you said it was love
- it's coming to get you
