You Are My Defense

I feel the clouds coming over like a bad dream
Same shadows I've known since I was 18
Weeks before winter falls
You'll find me in the back hall, hiding
I feel the sunshine slip away

And I don't know how to climb out of this valley
I don't wanna go back where I've been
But every time, you've laid yourself beside me
Your love, my one defense, oh, oh-oh, oh
You are my defense, oh, oh

You carve the stone with evidence of Your love
Strike a match to warm us when the cold comes
And I will sing of summer light, that feeds the soul through the dark night
Will You feed my soul through the night?

'Cause I don't know how to climb out of this valley
I don't wanna go back where I've been
But every time, you've laid yourself beside me
Your love, my one defense, oh, oh-oh, oh
You are my defense, oh, oh

When I'm your ship out in the sea
You are, You are the lighthouse calling me
And when I feel unreachable
You get to me, oh, You get to me

I don't know how to climb out of this valley
I don't wanna go back where I've been
But every time, you laid yourself beside me
Every time, you laid yourself beside me
Your love, my one defense, oh, oh-oh, oh
You are my defense, oh, oh
You're my defense (my defense)
Oh, oh
