"It is different; as different as a real thing is from a shadow or as a waking life is from a dream." - C.S. Lewis
Lyrics
I whispered to the dark sky; endless fields of starry eyes blinking in the night. Try to convince my heart that I've never seen a single thing quite as glorious as you. But no, you can't compare. You can't compare. Show me what is higher than the heavens, brighter than the strongest star. I want more than shadows of the things to come; beauty that will never be contained by any earthly thing. Give me what cannot be seen with my own eyes. I whispered to a red rose royal in its velvet clothes. Show me all your splendor to convince my heart that I've never seen a single thing quite as beautiful as you. But no, you can't compare. You can't compare. No, you can't compare. You can't compare. I shouted to the ocean; waves of deep and endless motion. Show me all your strength and convince my heart that I've never seen a single thing quite as powerful as you. But no, you can't compare. You can't compare. No, you can't compare. You can't compare. Your maker made you beautiful to capture all my love. Your maker made you beautiful, but I want more. Creator, Creator show me what is..
