Ari Herstand: Christian Dear

I'm sifting through pictures revealing your past life
And the further back in time I see I am reminded of my insignificancy
I'm a new friend a new man and your photos reinforce so simply
I'm a no one in a lone frame of what makes you and me
I can't believe how quickly I fell just the other day I rang the bachelor bell
Swinging on the rope with my mallet held tight
But a spark lit the strings and burned a brighter light
I'm a new man with a new plan
I'm taking my time like a kid in the sand
I have new tears with new fears
I'm falling in love with a Christian dear
Just hold the light
A little bit higher I can't read your eyes
I'm growing blind
I'm hanging on thread that last a thousand miles
I'm helpless here a dripping tear
I'm falling in love with a Christian dear
My dear
She left me for a day at the beach her ex boyfriend went to accompany
I sat in my room cutting photographs piecing her in where my heart fell out
I am home sick alone with the unfamiliar feeling of jealousy's gift
It's a wrapped fear a trapped tear I'm keeping inside from my Christian dear
Just hold the light
A little bit higher I can't see your eyes
I'm growing blind
I'm hanging on a thread that lasts a thousand miles
I'm helpless here a dripping tear
I'm falling
Just hold me tight
A little bit longer I can't help my eyes
I'm falling blind
I'm hanging on a thread but you're giving me the ties
I've let down my guard it's time to start a reason why
And lift our fear and volunteer
Our secrets in the vault where the walls have become clear
I'm helpless here a drying tear
I'm falling clear of reason's steer
I am shifting gears lifting fear
I'm falling in love with a Christian dear
My dear
I'm sifting through pictures revealing our new life
