Ron Pope - A Drop in the Ocean

A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my heaven

I don't wanna waste the weekend
If you don't love me pretend
A few more hours then it's time to go

As my train rolls down the east coast I wonder how you keep warm
It's too late to cry
Too broken to move on

And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me

It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my heaven

Misplaced trust in old friends
Never counting regrets
By the grace of God I do not rest at all

And New England as the leaves change
The last excuse that I'll claim
I was a boy who loved a woman like a little girl

And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me

It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my...

Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
No, no
Heaven doesn't seem far away

Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
No, no
Heaven doesn't seem far away
Oh, oh

It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my heaven
You are my heaven

Club 8 - Football Kids

Do you ever get tired of the football kids
With their sporty styles
When you stay home they run miles
And don't you ever get bored with the job you've got
You wanted it badly
But wish you were on the dole

I've got what it takes to be on my way
With pen and paper I'll say
I know you all
Read about yourselves in my essay
I've got what it takes to be on my way
In a book I'll claim

Do you ever get tired of the friends you have
As you got them talking
There's no stopping them now
And don't you ever get tired of the lack of time
Whatever you're starting always goes on for years

I felt tired tonight
Keep me out of sight

I've got what it takes to be on my way
With pen and paper I'll say
I know you all
Read about yourselves in my essay
I've got what it takes to be on my way
In a book I'll claim
I know your kind
You fill up my mind
