Sign of the Times

SONG 51...I guess there were still things left to say...
_____________________________________________________________________


COMPULSION OF MY HEART

I was ready to roll…but it was likely
A conversation that ended too quickly
At a loss for more words, you paused awkwardly
And your pause kind of scared me…
Yeah, you kind of scared me…

Now, I’m walking alone on the same street
I’ve had more than enough time to think
But nothing prepares me for the moment
That moment is blind

**CHORUS**
And I know there was a reason to walk away…
At the time, but now I know
There are things still left to say
So, I will follow you high
I will follow you far
I will follow wherever you are
Cause I must follow
The compulsion of my heart

I could leave it alone…it might be easier
Choose never to know…but then I’d wonder
Who is this man who could affect me
To the point I can’t speak?

**Chorus**

My sleep…is broken by the saturation
Of that moment I let slip away
My peace…is broken by the sad reflection
Of you as you watched me walk away
Now, my days are spent…
Searching for the scattered pieces
Of this puzzle so that I can
Put them back together just for you…

I cannot explain the urgency
Won’t stop for anything short of an emergency
I can’t imagine the moment of recovery
When I fix my eyes on you

And I know…there was a reason to walk away
At the time, but now I know…
There are things still left to say
So, I will follow above
I will follow below
I will follow wherever you go
I…I will follow you high
I will follow you far
I will follow wherever you are
Cause I must follow
The compulsion of my heart…

I will follow you high
I will follow you far…
