(Lyrics, Music: Peterson) Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? Bend the light that only you can see Seen so many things slip away from me Stumbled home and cut my chin along the way Lately I can't get your voice out of my head Silly things you used to say to me Like why does life go by so fast and days just creep along Can I open up my expectations long enough to write this song, to look inside to open my hand Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? Bend the light that only you can see Come to me in the night Walk me into the silent water Cast away all your fright Sanctify the place so deep inside your darkness and be free and be free If a mountain follows a shooting star into the sea If a stranger leads you down another road Let it be my voice that warms you in the night Silly prayers on my wings to you So dance around the sun until I take my weakest breath In all that I embrace watch over me, surround my face with love, love, love Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? Bend the light that only you can see Come to me in the night Walk me into the silent water Cast away all your fright Sanctify the place so deep inside your darkness and be free and be free Carry me down to the water Carry me into the sound Carry me down to the water And I'll sleep with you under the ground under the ground under the ground So dance around the sun until I take my weakest breath In all that I embrace watch over me, surround my face with love, love, love Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? Bend the light that only you can see Come to me in the night Walk me into the silent water Cast away all your fright Sanctify the place so deep inside your darkness and be free and be free You got to come to me in the night Walk me into the silent water Cast away all your fright
