The Olive Branch

[Verse] It’s 3:30 in the morning I cannot sleep Thoughts are racing through my head Competing to get out of my mind Colliding with each other as they race Joining to become one Only to have other thoughts take their place [Chorus] Then I think of her and my mind calms I begin to pray for her healing I pray for her pain to heal and go away My mind begins to settle [Verse] I pray for her to keep smiling I pray for the strength to fulfill Do the right thing To be there for her To protect her [Verse] I cannot change the past I don’t know what to do The olive branch I’m holding has no thorns There are no tricks in the peace offering It’s just me bearing my heart with the words [Chorus] I just want you to be happy I just want you to smile I just want you to be here Be here today [Verse] I cannot change the past I don’t know what to do The olive branch I’m holding has no thorns It’s just me bearing my heart with the words [Instrumental, Horns] [Chorus] I just want you to be happy I just want you to smile I just want you to be here Be here today [Outro] [Instrument, Horns] [Fade] [End]
