Lyrics John Mark McMillan

John Mark McMillan

Counting On

When the night stops pushing up the day

When the mounds drop here on the open plains

When I've lost grace with the lady of the dawn

You're what I'm counting on

You're what I'm counting on

Where the hounds run, trap me in my sleep

When I can't trust the company the keep

When I've pushed past the point of pressing on

You're what I'm counting on

You're what I'm counting on

I'm throwing stones up at your window

I'm casting shadows upon your door

I'm throwing stones up at your window

I'm casting shadows upon your door

Where the bombs break right outside my door

And I can't shake the onset of my wars

When the stakes are raised and we hold the hand we've drawn

You're what I'm counting on

I'm throwing stones up at your window

I'm casting shadows upon your door

I'm throwing stones up at your window

I'm casting shadows upon your door
