Leap of Faith

Chris Nandor

Stepping outside, leap of faith
Arms to hold is where we're safe
And nothing left to stand on
Nothing left to grasp

Can it be we're here ourselves
I almost fear we're someone else
But I feel your breath
I feel your touch

And oh, I know it's magic
Exploring our new world
I do not think that it's tragic
Just be this boy and girl

Smile, make my whole world clean
Stare into your eyes of green
This fantasy is not a dream
A dream can't be this good

Glassy waves of heat erupt
Drink it in and take the cup
And swallow down the torrent rain
The elements begin

And oh, this is the fate we hold
We can't escape the past
Our wages in a ring of gold
The covenant will last

When all that's left is known to me
And nothing remains mystery
I don't think I will want to be
Around here anymore

And oh, I know it's tragic
If I skip to the end
I will not miss the magic
Of meeting my new friend

Stepping outside, leap of faith
Arms to hold is where we're safe
And nothing left to stand on
Nothing left to grasp

It's all I've ever wanted
This life without a net
Someday rest will come to us
Praise God it's not here yet
