Things Like You

Loving things like you has wrecked my life, made me cry

Loving things like you has made me lose my mind

And I can't figure out why I've been hanging on

To all these things I've tried to leave behind me for so long

And I think it's time to find a better way to live my life

Than loving all those thingsthat keep me wrapped so tight

Everyone wants everyone else's eveything

Some time's the more we have the less we really gain

I'm tired of life and all that money has to buy

Get out of my heart, out of my mind, leaving you behind

Loving things like you has left me bruised, black and blue

Loving things like you has made me so confused

And I can't figure out what I've been waiting on

God I can't be living for things I know are wrong

Now I think it's time to write a better chapter in my life

Leaving all those things that keep me wrapped so tight

Why are we obsessed with possessions here on earth?

Go and take a look at the flowers and the birds

God is always taking care of nature's every need

And how much more important in The Father's eyes are we?

I said, how much more important in The Father's eyes are we?

He sees everything
