I always liked how you'd kneel down to tie your shoes up I'd stand and look at your hair But I'd get out of there fast, I'd slip my boots on I never gave you time to stare I liked the way you'd feel smaller for a second And I'd stand in silence Maybe I'll see you drive by in your car Maybe you'll see me walking I don't want you knowing anything I'm thinking I'm just quietly hoping I wonder how far I can walk before I tire I wonder how long I can sing before my throat gets dry I wonder how far I can walk before I tire I wonder how long I can sing before my throat gets dry I'm not a leaf in a river I know what I'm here for I know what I'm here for I'm not a leaf in a river I'm a sailboat in a storm I won't float along My brothers always would leave the kitchen table Before saying thank you They didn't know what they had I don't know when it'll be but I say 'see you' You say nothing again I wonder how far I can walk before I tire I wonder how long I can sing before my throat gets dry I wonder how far I can walk before I tire I wonder how long I can sing before my throat gets dry I'm not a leaf in a river I know what I'm here for I know what I'm here for I'm not a leaf in a river I'm a sailboat in a storm I won't float along Oh I know what I'm here for Oh I'm a sailboat in a storm Oh I know what I'm here for Oh I'll sail along in this storm I wonder how far I can walk before I tire I wonder how long I can sing before my throat gets dry I wonder how far I can walk before I tire I wonder how long I can sing I know where I'm heading But I don't want to wait in line Unless you'll be there too Could I put my hand around your arm I know where I'm heading But I don't want to wait in line Unless you'll be there too Could I put my hand around your arm I guess I missed you coming off the highway You won't see me and I won't leave you wondering I guess I missed you coming off the highway (I guess I missed you, I guess I missed you) You won't see me and I won't leave you wondering I'm not a leaf in a river I know what I'm here for I know what I'm here for I'm not a leaf in a river I know what I'm here for I know what I'm here for I'm not a leaf in a river I'm a sailboat in a storm I won't float along We had a different kind of worship You were a different kind of person
