A Trick of the Light

My heart is spilling over
Crashing on the ground
I can't see what's around me
But soon I'll come around
My faith is in the balance
Of a million tiny words
So I return to silence

And if I see a sign in the sky tonight
No one's gonna tell me it's a trick of the light
May never come, but I'm willing to wait
What can I say? I'm a woman of the faith
There's an ocean in my body
And there's a river in my soul
And I'm crying

It's time that I go
Things I can't control
This path that I've taken
Is the only one I know
Well, I've come so far to get here
And I've got so far to go
So I'll take what I can get
In matters of the soul

And if I see a sign in the sky tonight
No one's gonna tell me it's a trick of the light
May never come, but I'm willing to wait
What can I say? I'm a woman of the faith
There's an ocean in my body
And there's a river in my soul
And I'm crying

Ooh, we are the dawn
And we carry the sun
And we are the dawn
And we carry the sun

And if I see a sign in the sky tonight
No one's gonna tell me it's a trick of the light
May never come, but I'm willing to wait
What can I say? I'm a woman of the faith
There's an ocean in my body
And there's a river in my soul
And I'm crying

And I'm crying
Oh, crying
