"Beneath My Chest”
When beneath my chest you came to rest
This heart deep within did fail me
I drop my head in shame
And lay my hand upon my chest
To cover up the hurt inside
Cause something deep inside did break
Leaving me with a deep stabbing ache
With a drowsy pain within my heart
Knowing without measure I lost a treasure
Tears tumbling down my face
Splashing to a stop in the sand
Beneath my chest you came to rest
My heart imprisoned by love
But this heart deep within did fail me
As I drop my head in shame
I lay both my hands upon my head
Looking up to the sky
Forgiveness I beg for
Tears tumbling down my face
Splashing to stop in the sand
As I still walk my beach alone
Standing tall in pain
Beneath the deep blue sky
All I can do right now is cry
And drop my head in shame
Knowing I love You...
Who came to rest beneath my chest
