Church of my Dreams



(On) a southern afternoon
My prayers are missing you
That old church
We both knew
Sold broken promises

The windows, painted black
You can never go back
Tear-filled eyes
Time gone by
Forever l will wait

I no longer ask 
For him to send you back 
You filled my night with stars 
And painted my heart blue
I'm still missing you

Sad songs to help me breathe
Take me away from here
Words I scream
No release 
Lost in a memory

When lonely calls my name
From a far-away place
Taking me
Where me meet
In the church of my dreams
