See You

Shaun Groves


I see America from airplane windows 
Center front row 
On top of the world 
Looking out on this quilt of old scraps 
These green squares laid flat 
Like flags unfurled 

They're stitched together by our 
Fences and tree lines 
Rivers that unwind 
And spell Your Name 
There's a trace of Your face in 
All that You create 

Chorus 
I can see You 
Looking back at me 
Trying to get through 
To the heart of me 
And I can see You 
Running after me 
Trying to break through 
What's distracting me 
And I can see You 
I can see You 

Looking up from my hotel window 
There in the moon's glow 
I find Your eyes 
Watching over me through 
Clouds of silver 

Stretched like fingers 
Over midnight skies 
And I recognize You 
Even in disguise 

Chorus 

If I can get past 
All of the deadlines 
Demons of daily grind 
Then I can, I can, I can see You
