lyrics

All that really matters is what You think
My life has been given--it's not my own
If I feel the vacuum, the emptiness is mine, I guess
It's not because You don't exist, but because of this:
I believe that I can live without You, without You

CHORUS
You are in the habit
Of giving me what I ask for when I don't want to admit it
Independence is a fiction
That I run to when I think that it's convenient
'Cause sometimes when I hide, You come and seek me;
But sometimes when I hide, You let me hide.

You are not a waiter to hear my prayers,
Then go somewhere and bring me my demands
Maybe it's better to say, instead,
That I would be dead if You really let me see You

Now it's time for me to turn to Thee
Even if Your only gift is this silence,
I don't need a sign to know I love You
I love You

You are in the habit
Of giving me what I ask for when I don't want to admit it
Independence is a fiction
That I run to when I think that it's convenient
'Cause sometimes when I hide, You come and seek me;
But sometimes when I hide, You let me hide.

All that really matters is what You think
