Seems my own arrogance has knocked me off my feet again
When you know I'm crawling to you as fast as I can.
First teach me to walk,
Then I'll learn to dance for you,
Like an honest clumsy clown,
Tripping along the way.
'Cause I am reaching for you
But my arms aren't long enough,
And I am running for you
If I go a little faster,
And I am crying to you
But I can't hear my own voice,
And I am waiting for you,
And trying not to fall asleep now.
And I am clumsily dancing away this fear.
I am stumbling closer to you and I am
Tumbling over my pride.
I will be a fool for you.
What are you thinking as you look down on me?
Are you frustrated with my inconsistency?
Or intrigued that I can find the will to get back on board?
Maybe all of this is simply amusing.

i cant believe there arent any posts for this song! this is such an amazing song! i can def relate, i think a lot of people can.. this whole cd is so great... such a great song...
This is an awesome song! The melody is so dynamic... it's deep yet whimsical at the same time (is that the right way to discribe it?) And the meaning of the lyrics can be interpreted in more than one way (with God or a girl being the subject). Jason Wade has got to be one of my favorite performers ever! Where can I get this album though? I just have this song downloaded from a long time ago.
