Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
What do you do when you get everything you wanted
But it's not what you wanted after all
What do you do when your dreams become reality
But deep inside you know they're not enough
[CHORUS]
God, it's so hard living with a longing heart
Everything I think I need feels so strangely out of reach
So God help me now to understand that this may be how
You show me I was made for something more
Sometimes I move in circles
Sometimes I feel I'm walking a wire between
What's now and what's to come
I'm caught inside every moment
Breathing it's beauty in but knowing it will never fill me up
[CHORUS]
Than anything my eyes can see
So give me faith and help me to believe
[CHORUS]
