Tears From Heaven
Nathan Pacheco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Give me shelter from the storm.
Daylight is gone, but still I can see
Somewhere there's a place to keep warm.
Drifting in silence, hear my heartbeat
Breathing this feeling that I know
If danger and trouble come around me,
Somewhere there's a place to call my home.
The way back home.
If in solitude I wonder,
Far away from those I love
If my faith is thorn
Lay my way through stars above.
Tears from heaven was me over
Give me shelter from the storm.
Daylight is gone, but still I can see
Light shinning bright to guide me home.
Guide me home.
Daylight is gone, but still I can see
Light shinning bright to guide me home
Watch over me and I will find
The way back home.
