Something Beautiful


In your ocean, I'm ankle deep
I feel the waves crashin' on my feet
It's like I know where I need to be
But I can't figure out, yeah I can't figure out

Just how much air I will need to breathe
When your tide rushes over me
There's only one way to figure out
Will ya let me drown, will ya let me drown

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, 'cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I'm in reach
'Cause I am down on my knees, I'm waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

And the water is risin' quick
And for years I was scared of it
We can't be sure when it will subside
So I won't leave your side, no I can't leave your side

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, 'cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I'm in reach
'Cause I am down on my knees, I'm waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

In a daydream, I couldn't live like this
I wouldn't stop until I found something beautiful
When I wake up, I know I will have
No, I still won't have what I need

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, 'cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I'm in reach
'Cause I am down on my knees, I'm waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

I love this song. I am so happy when I hear it on KLove. I am laughing though because now that I read the lyrics I realize the one line I liked the most is not what I thought it said.. "To Touch me, I know that I'm married 'cause I am down on my knees.." I liked it because that's how are relationship should be with God, a marriage and this song drew that picture for me. Although the words are actually "I'm in reach..." and He is.

  1. I thought it was "I'm married" too. And after watching him sing the song, I still think so. I refuse to think differently unless one of the band members actually tells me that it's "in reach". ;)
