The day is dimming and I'm yearning for you I won't be satisfied till I see your face Every victory, every loss Every ticket, every cross You can put them all in place
It seems I'm finding more of why In these moments I feel like I'm made to sing of how good you are The more the years swell by and pass Each seconds more than last It's true by far
That no profound thought or clever rhyme No soaring grand, melodic line No theory, philosophy or sign Can explain it Can explain
Where you are, I wanna be It's your love that has changed me I'd give the world, and all it's charms For a moment in your arms Better is one day with you Than a thousand elsewhere A thousand elsewhere
I still remember what it felt like before you I'm grateful every day for how things have changed I'll thank you every way I can 'Cos my life only began When I heard you call my name
Now, no praise of man No great acclaim No humble looking kind of fane No power, wealth or worldly gain Could satisfy me Could every satisfy
['Cos] Where you are, I wanna be It's your grace that has raised me I'd give my whole life to honour you And whom I live And whom I move [?] Better is one day with you Than a thousand elsewhere
Better is one day in your courts Better is one day in your house Better is one day in your courts Than anywhere else oh Lead me, lead me Lead me to your shelf [?] Lead me to your heart
Where you are, I wanna be It's your love that has changed me I'd give my life, to honour you And whom I live And whom I move [?] Better is one day with you Than a thousand elsewhere A thousand elsewhere....
Lead me to your shelf Lead me to your heart I'll be found in you I'll be found in you Here is peace Here is joy Here is light [life?] Here is freedom, freedom
