Mixed Emotions
by Matthew Ward

Album: Fortress

Why do you run from Me, child
Why do you hide your heart
Why is there always something
Keeping us apart
Is there a fear inside you
Darkness that clouds the mind
Making the simple truth of love
Too hard to find

I've tried so hard to show you
There's nothing to read between the lines
But doubts and mixed emotions
Have let you pass Me by

Still you go on without Me
Living your life alone
Dull to My voice that's always there
To bring you home
You feel that truth's elusive
It must be hard to find
You search in vain for something
Just to soothe your mind

I've tried so hard to show you
There's nothing to read between the lines
But doubts and mixed emotions
Have let you pass Me by

If you would open to Me
If you would call My name
If you would give to Me your heart
So full of pain
I could begin to free you
Show you a perfect way
Melt every fear and doubt
Inside your heart away

I've tried so hard to show you
There's nothing to read between the lines
But doubts and mixed emotions
Have let you pass Me by
