Chloe Ament
Red in the Water
[Verse 1]
It’s killing me, but I can’t let it show
I’ve ruined me, but nobody needs to know
I let it hurt, and I let it hurt some more
I bend until I break, and then sweep me off the floor
[Verse 2]
And I went away in the dead of the night
Tried to hide my shame ‘cause I had to be right
I acted cool but inside I felt so broken
I knew the truth, and thought I didn’t deserve it
[Chorus]
Now I will climb and crawl up every hill
And chase the light inside the window sill
The way is far, but I remember it
My heart is full, I'm coming home again
[Verse 3]
I see Him run with His back to the door
Like He loves me now as much as He did before
And I fell apart, but He stretched his arms out wide
I know it now, He’ll never change His mind
[Chorus]
So I will climb and crawl up every hill
And chase the light inside the window sill
The way is far, but I remember it
My heart is full, I'm coming home again
[Bridge]
It’s wearing me down, I’m letting it get me
There is no crown on this earth that could tempt me
I feel like a child, so I’ll run to my Father
You know my name, I’m the prodigal daughter
It’s hot on my trail, I’m letting it catch me
There is no trophy or gold that could tempt me
I’m weak like a child, so I’ll run to my Father
He loves me like there is no red in the water
It’s loud in my ears, the call to surrender
There is no future worth more than this Savior
I am just a child, so I run to my Father
Whatever the distance, I know He’ll run farther
[Outro]
He loves me like there is no red in the water
