I'm Longing For You

Mark V. Markov

I'm Longing For You
Author: Mark V. Markov

I'm spending my time
Watching life go by
Feeling so small
I stare at it all
Knowing that You my Lord
You oh my Lord God
Are forever true

Can't live without You
Without Your presence
It's hard to be
When there's no one else around

I'm spending my time
Watching life go by
Feeling so small
I stare at it all
Knowing that You my Lord
You oh my Lord God
Are forever true

I'm longing,
Longing for You.
I'm longing,
Longing for You.

I'm spending my time
Watching the sunrise
From dusk to dawn
I'm watching the sun

I'm longing,
Longing for You.
I'm longing,
Longing for You.

Can't live without You
Without Your presence
It's hard to be
When there's no one else around

I'm spending my time
Watching life go by
Feeling so small
I stare at it all
Knowing that You my Lord
You oh my Lord God
Are forever true

I'm spending my time
Watching the sunrise
From dusk to dawn
I'm watching the sun
Longing for You

I'm longing,
Longing for You.
I'm longing,
Longing for You...
