It's been awhile since I felt you near to me
And all I hold is the vagueness
Of your memory

Why did I roam so far from you, oh lord
I had you right inside the center of my heart
And I took it for granted but

You always stayed by my side
You always answered my cry
And when I fall you catch me
'Cause you are the loving kind (oh)

So take me in to your loving arms again (oh I)
'Cause I'm so tired of dancin' with my sin (oh, oh, yeah)
Why did I roam so far from you oh lord
I had you right inside the center of my heart
And I took it for granted but

You always stayed by my side
You always answered my cry
And when I fall you catch me
'Cause you are the loving kind (ohh)
Oh, 'cause you are the loving kind
