The God In You

Jim Peterik


Now sure I'm taken by your shape
And shaken by your lips tonight
And I Love the glimmer of your eyes that shimmer
Like the northern lights

But it's how you say my name
That reaches deeper, leaves me speechless
It's the sacred and profane
That brings me to my knees

And I'm attracted to the god in you, the god in you
You touch me and right on cue
The best in me finds the god in you

Now I'm learning about celestial yearning
Heaven's in your eyes
Your wisdom's showing past your ways of knowing
How'd you get so wise

Do you have friends above
That search to find you, moves designed to
Keeps me caught up in your love
You're bringing me to my knees

And I'm attracted to the god in you, the god in you
You touch me and right on cue
The best in me finds the god in you

Each move that you make
Is taking me closer to heaven it seems
Each breath that you take
Send my skyward, soaring skyward

And just like god above
I stare in wonder, your quiet thunder
Keeps me caught up in your love

And I'm attracted to the god in you, the god in you
You touch me and right on cue
The best in me finds the god in you
And I'm attracted to the god in you, the god in you
You touch me and right on cue
The best in me finds the god in you
