Francesca Battistelli - Ivan's Song lyrics
[Francesca Battistelli - Ivan's Song lyrics]
Gazing into a rain filled night
Gazing into a rain filled night
Praying he could run instead of fight
His eyes are frowning with his heart
But somehow he gets in his car
And he cries as he drives down the road
'Cause down the road he doesn’t know
How can he know if he never tries?
'Where am I without her, ' he cries
As he dries the tears from
His precious baby’s eyes
Who just doesn't know, 'How could he know?'
She's just not coming home
As the cards start to fill his mailbox
He's hoping it's a dream he'll wake from
Why this chastening, oh Lord?
This trial’s too big to face alone
So he sighs as he drives down the road
’Cause where to go he still doesn't know
How can he know if he never tries?
’Where am I without her, ' he cries
As he dries the tears from
His precious baby's eyes
Who just doesn't know, ’How could he know?'
Momma's just not coming home
But blessed are you mourners
For your sorrow will turn into joy
And do not be discouraged
For He is with you wherever you go
His ways are not our ways
Now he smiles as he drives down the road
Because where he goes he's always known
God has a purpose in every plan
Even when we can't understand
Now he recognizes how she's still
Alive in his baby's eyes
And he'll be okay 'cause
He'll see her someday (Oh, yeah)
Gazing into a rain filled night
Praying he could run instead of fight
His eyes are frowning with his heart
But somehow he gets in his car
And he cries as he drives down the road
'Cause down the road he doesn’t know
How can he know if he never tries?
'Where am I without her, ' he cries
As he dries the tears from
His precious baby’s eyes
Who just doesn't know, 'How could he know?'
She's just not coming home
As the cards start to fill his mailbox
He's hoping it's a dream he'll wake from
Why this chastening, oh Lord?
This trial’s too big to face alone
So he sighs as he drives down the road
’Cause where to go he still doesn't know
How can he know if he never tries?
’Where am I without her, ' he cries
As he dries the tears from
His precious baby's eyes
Who just doesn't know, ’How could he know?'
Momma's just not coming home
But blessed are you mourners
For your sorrow will turn into joy
And do not be discouraged
For He is with you wherever you go
His ways are not our ways
Now he smiles as he drives down the road
Because where he goes he's always known
God has a purpose in every plan
Even when we can't understand
Now he recognizes how she's still
Alive in his baby's eyes
And he'll be okay 'cause
He'll see her someday (Oh, yeah)
