Remembering You - Steven Curtis Chapman

I found You in the most unlikely way
But really it was You who found me
And I found myself in the gifts that You gave
You gave me so much and I

I wish You could stay
but I'll, I'll wait for the day

Chorus
And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring
And I'll be remembering You
Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing
and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You

From the first moment when I heard Your name
Something in my heart came alive
You showed me love and no words could explain
A love with the power to
Open the door
To a world I was made for

Chorus
And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring
And I'll be remembering You
Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing
and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You

The dark night, the hard fight
The long climb up the hill knowing the cost
The brave death, the last breathe
The silence whispering all hope was lost
The thunder, the wonder
A power that brings the dead back to life

I wish You could stay
But I'll wait for the day
And though You've gone away
You come back and

Chorus
And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring
And I'll be remembering You
Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing
and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You

And I'll watch as the sun fills a sky that was dark
And I'll be remembering You
And I'll think of the way that You fill up my heart
And I'll be remembering You

I'll be remembering You
I'll be remembering You
I'll be remembering You

Steven Curtis Chapman's music is just so... I don't know, it gets to me. In a good way, I mean. I sent my parents the song "Cinderella" because when I heard it, I was so touched by it. I know I am so blessed to have a good relationship with my parents, and when I heard the song, I remembered how when I was young I would dance with my daddy too. I would hug his waist and we would just swing around and the song brought back such good memories for me. I know I'm at college, living my own life and dreaming my own dreams now, but some days I just want to go home and be my parent's baby again, to be loved and cared for in that way that I remember from my childhood. I'm not saying I don't feel loved by my parents anymore - it's just different when you're grown up and away from home.
