Lyrics: Twila Paris. Sparks and Shadows.

Cover the distance, love in between us
When I am cold and afraid
You are the secret spoken in silence
Keeping the vow You have made

You hold me through sparks and shadows
You sing me awake
When night falls and my thoughts wonder
You stay, I love the way, the way

Carry the message deep in the hollow
Hide it away underground
There is a weary confidence fading
When it is lost, I am found

You hold me through sparks and shadows
You sing me awake
When night falls and my thoughts wonder
You stay, I love

The way You keep on tearing down these walls
And bringing near the vary far
The way you keep this gentle
But insistent revolution in my heart, I love the way You are

You are the only sparks and shadows

You are the only truth in existence
Why would I reach for more
You are my future, here in my present
All that has gone before

You hold me through sparks and shadows
You sing me awake
When night falls and my thoughts wonder
You stay, I love the way

You hold me through sparks and shadows
You sing me awake
When night falls and my thoughts wonder
You stay, I love the way
I love the way, way sparks and shadows
