A Drop in the Ocean

A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and I might end up together.
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert.
But I'm holding you closer than most, because you are my heaven.
I don't wanna waste the weekend, if you don't love me, pretend.
A few more hours, then it's time to go.
And as my train rolls down the East coast, I wonder how you keep warm.
Too late to cry, too broken to move on.
And still I can't let you be.
Most nights I hardly sleep.
Don't seek what you don't need from me.

Just a drop in the ocean, a change in the weather.
I was praying that you and me might end up together.
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert.
But I'm holding you closer than most, cuz you are heaven.

Misplaced trust and old friends
Never counting regrets
By the grace of God, I do not rest at all.
In New England as the leaves change, the last excuse that I'll claim is that I was a woman who loved a man like a little girl.

Just a drop in the ocean, a change in the weather.
I was praying that you and me might end up together.
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert.
But I'm holding you closer than most, cuz you are heaven.

Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore.

You are my heaven.
