What can I do with my obsession

With the things I cannot see

Is there madness in my being

Is it wind that blows the trees

Sometimes you're further than the moon

Sometimes you're closer than my skin

And you surround me like a winter fog

You've come and burned me with a kiss



              G            A              D/F#

And my heart        burns    for you

              G             A               D

And my heart         burns    for you



And I'm so filthy with my sin

I carry pride like a disease

You know I'm stubborn God and I'm longing to be close

You burn me deeper than I know

I feel lonely without hope

I feel desperate without vision

You wrap around me like a winter coat.

You come and free me like a bird.
