Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I tuned my ear to the ground
Which way you comin' from?
And I looked to the sky for a sign
Which way you comin' from?
All of a sudden
I'm on the wings of a dove
Peace like a fountain
Flowing from within me, uh huh
And I said
My love
Which way you comin' from?
Caught me by surprise
And I knew it the whole time
I was waiting on the front lines
You flew in with such a stride
Like a thief comes in the night
And I'm in bride white
I switched my gaze to the sun
Which way you comin' from?
You flipped the story on its head
Which way you comin' from?
All of a sudden
I'm on the wings of a dove
Peace like a fountain
Flowing from within me, uh huh
And I said
My love
Which way you comin' from?
Caught me by surprise
And I knew it the whole time
I was waiting on the front lines
You flew in with such a stride
Like a thief comes in the night
And I'm in bride white
