Gord Lang - Back to You Lyrics

They said it was so exciting - I'd have all I would ever need
It was all there just waiting if I would join them in their deed
They said I would be the envy of all my friends and my family
I could have it all tomorrow - just wait and see

I never found the pot of gold hidden at the rainbow's end
I never had my name engraved on some fashionable pen
But I'll never find another Friend who will love me the way that You do
So Lord that's why I keep coming back to You

They told me that I was special there was nobody quite like me
I had nothing but potential - disappointments were history
If I'd focus my attention there was nothing I couldn't achieve
I had only to catch the vision - and just believe

(I keep coming back to You)

(Because) I'm tired of empty promises and goals I will never meet
Striving after empty vanity while trying to compete
Won't You give me a clear direction in whatever You want me to do
Today I take my life and give it all back to You

(Now) I may never find the pot of gold hidden at the rainbow's end
(And) I may never have my name engraved on some fashionable pen
But I'll never find another Friend who will love me the way that You do
And Lord that's why I keep coming back to You
