it's that sunday afternoon breeze it's the spendin' time with my family it's that inevitable three-part harmony it's the biscuits, gravy, mashed potatoes, collard greens it's the "please and thank you" common courtesy there's somethin' to that southern hospitality i look around, people wearin' these frowns and i think i got to go back down 'cause i got grown and went far away now all i want is to leave today take a ride through some countryside and say oh, say "whoo..." "whoo... now, that's better!"

the sun just passin' me by the sun just passin' me by the sun just passin' me by by, by travelin' this lonely road and it seems i've no place to go travelin' this lonely road and it seems i've no place to go and the sun just passin' me by the sun just passin' me by the sun just passin' me by by, by question, what do i have to lose do what i must do just to get it through to you but you runnin', you ain't ready and i just don't get it said you like a challenge but you frowning at the first one meanwhile, i keep movin' steady, provin' no help from you the things i said i'd do and time's a wastin' wonder where the day went my purpose melting out there on horizon and the sun just passin' me by the sun just passin' me by the sun just passin' me by by, by

wondering where you are sometimes you seem so far especially when it's dark 'cause the sun has a way of hiding all of my fears better than the moon, when it appears the night tends to make things clear and it isn't like i could just call you askin' you whatchu been up to, no, God oh no, 'cause you're a different kind of friend i wish i could just see you i wish i could just hear you then maybe my faith would increase but if i, i could just see you if i, i could just hear you then you wouldn't be all that you've been to me so i'd rather just believe now, clearly i can i remember i was reading in your word and found that i'm not the first one to question see, there was a man named Thomas he was never really fully convinced until he felt the scars on Jesus' hands and sometimes i really feel just like him i wanna know all the outs and ins, but God oh God, you're so much bigger than i'll ever know i wish i could just see you i wish i could just hear you then maybe my faith would increase but if i, i could just see you if i, i could just hear you then you wouldn't be all that you've been to me so i'd rather just believe

struggled through the long, long day said my mood came with the rain yeah, you know i was lying again and so i pulled into the driveway turned the house key turned the shades all alone inside i think a voice is speaking what is right question is, do we ever listen had it all, threw it away just to play this losing game still i hear you say... come back home come back home though you've strayed you are never too far away you can come back home
5.
notice me 01:58
you stepped right over me i was lying on the floor i was the one sprawled out welcoming you at the door see, i am the ground that you walk on the reason why you are here (your foundation) but with your eyes never shifting you'd think that i had disappeared notice me, notice me, notice me...
