Kevin K. Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here in the waiting
I look up to a sky full of stars
And I smile, cause I see
The place where my name will be
Right now I'm just
Here for the taking
So take me back to your heart
On the day I bow down
And replace my pain for your crown
And what great love
And what great love
You pull me up
Into your love
Out of the dark
Back to the start
I am remade
When freedom comes
With all the sound of drums
Oh, I won't be running
I won't be running at all
A race to the finish
And I'm halfway to the end
But I'm here on the ground
It feels like I keep falling down
But
You pull me up
You pull me up
You pull me up
And what great love
And what great love
You pull me up
Into your love
Out of the dark
Back to the start
I am remade
When freedom comes
With all the sound of drums
Oh, I won't be running
I won't be running at all
You pick me up
You pull me up
And I'll fly on your wings
Like a child again
And I will soar
Yeah
And I will find the secret place
Your sweet embrace and remember
For a lifetime
For a lifetime
And what great love
And what great love
You pull me up
Into your love
Out of the dark
Back to the start
I am remade
When freedom comes
With all the sound of drums
Oh, I won't be running
I won't be running at all




Oh, I won't be running
I won't be running at all
