Sara Groves - Painting Pictures Of Egypt Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
I don't want to leave here
I don't want to stay
It feels like pinching to me
Either way
Are the places where I've been
They are calling out to me
Like a long lost friend
[Verse 2:]
It's not about losing faith
It's not about trust
It's all about comfortable
When you move so much
And the place I was wasn't perfect
And it wasn't milk or honey
But then neither is this
[Chorus:]
I've been painting pictures of Egypt
Leaving out what it lacks
The future feels so hard
And I want to go back
But the places that used to fit me
Cannot hold the things I've learned
Those roads were closed off to me
While my back was turned
[Verse 3:]
The past is so tangible
I know it by heart
Familiar things are never easy
To discard
I was dying for some freedom
But now I hesitate to go
I am caught between the Promise
And the things I know
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
If it comes to quick
I may not appreciate it
Is that the reason behind all this time in sand?
And if it comes to quick
I may not recognize it
Is that the reason behind all this time in sand?
