A Drop In The Ocean by Ron Pope
A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might
End up together
It's like (1)______________ for rain
As I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most
'Cause you are my heaven
I don't wanna waste the weekend
If you don't love me pretend
A few more hours
Then it's time to go
And as my train rolls down the East coast
I wonder how you keep warm
It's too late to cry
Too broken to move on
And still I can't let you be
Most (2)____________ I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't (3)________ from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might
End up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most
'Cause you are my heaven
Misplaced trust and old friends
Never counting regrets
By the grace of God, I do not rest at all
New England as the leaves change
The last excuse that I'll claim
I was a boy who loved a women like a little girl
And (4)__________ I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might
End up together
It's like wishing for (5)________ as I (6)__________ in the desert
But I'm holding you (7)____________ than most
'Cause you are my
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
No, no
Heaven doesn't (8)________ far away
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
No, no
Heaven doesn't seem far away
(Oh oh)
(Oh oh)
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying (9)________ you and me might
End up together
It's like (10)______________ for rain as I stand in the desert
