I feel the clouds coming over like a bad dream
Same shadows I've known since I was 18
Weeks before winter falls
You'll find me in the back hall, hiding
I feel the sunshine slip away

And I don't know how to climb out of this valley
I don't want to go back where I've been
But every time, you've laid yourself beside me
Your love my one defense
You are my defense...

You carve the stone with evidence of Your love
Strike a match to warm us when the cold comes
And I will sing of summer light that feeds the soul through the dark night
Will You feed my soul through the night'

And I don't know how to climb out of this valley
I don't want to go back where I've been
But every time, you've laid yourself beside me
Your love my one defense
You are my defense...

When I'm a ship out in the sea
You are, You are the lighthouse calling me
And when I feel unreachable
You get to me, You get to me...

And I don't know how to climb out of this valley
I don't want to go back where I've been
But every time, you've laid yourself beside me
Your love my one defense
You are my defense...
