Heaven Hides

Heaven hides here
in strangers' eyes
and in the warmth pressed between
lovers' hands
In children's smiles
down marriage aisles
and all the greatest words that
no one really knows how to say

Heaven hides here
in the cold silence
of burning tears running
down her cheeks
that slip through fingers
grasping at nothing, oh nothing
and maybe nothing is what she needs

There's a smile
there's a smile
only waiting for her lips to shape it
Heaven hides
Heaven hides
only waiting for her heart to find it

Heaven hides here
in broken promises
his mourning darkness
joy forgotten, direction lost
here in night's last breath
Heaven lies flickering
between threads of sorrow

and there's a path
there's a path
only waiting for his weary feet to walk it
Heaven hides
Heaven hides
only waiting for his heart to find it

Heaven hides
Heaven hides
only waiting for our hands
Heaven hides
Heaven hides
only waiting for our hands
Heaven hides
Heaven hides
only waiting for our hands to take it

Heaven hides here
in strangers' eyes
and in the warmth pressed between
lovers' hands
