Thirst

lyrics

Only one drink can, only one drink can
quench this thirst
only one drink can, only one drink can
quench this thirst
I thirst
only one bread can, only one bread can
feed this hunger
I hunger

only you can, only you can
quench this thirst
quench this thirst
You give the thirst
and you quench the thirst
at the same time, same time
you are my water
you are my bread
you are my water
you are my bread
You are the cup
you are the drink
you are the meal
beyond what I think

Nothing in the world can
nothing in the world can
satisfy
nothing in the world can
nothing in the world can
fill the hole, the pain
but you
but you
You are the cup
you are the drink
you are the bread
you are the meal
Nothing in the world can
nothing in the world can
sustain me
but you

you hold me up
you hold me up
when I’m sinking
you bear me up
you bear me up
when my wings are broken

you step into
you step into
the darkness
you quench the thirst
you feed the hunger
you fill the void
you fill all spaces
You are the arms
you are the arms
you are the arms
I can run to
you are the arms
you are the arms
that are never closed

your door is always open
your door is always open
you are, you are
Home
you are Home
you are Home
you’re the only true Home
you’re the only true Home
you’re the only
the only Home
You’ve got a warm fire
you’ve got a great big chair
you’ve got a warm cup of tea

You've been waiting for me
