When You Are Around

By AllenTaylor

My eyes have been opened and the chains unlocked
My heart beats faster and my fears have dropped
Thrown to the side like wheat in the breeze
Or like a soldier standing tall, yet he's weak in the knees
How my heart is filled with joy when you are around
And my lungs fill with air, and my soul makes the sound
The sound that only angels and God can hear
But you my love, my peace you hear it, it's so clear
Notes that float out of the womb of peace
And rhythm that moves that will never cease
How my heart beats and competes with this sound
How my soul is filled with joy, when you are around
