[Intro]
0:00
Verse 1
0:11
If I had one answer left to give
0:11
If I had one reason just to live
0:18
I’d say the years that turned my hair to grey
0:24
Were only stones along the way
0:31
I’ve flown like eagles on borrowed wind
0:37
I’ve drifted where the sky would bend
0:43
I’ve watched this world spin round and round
0:50
And learned what life is not about
0:56
Pre-Chorus
1:04
Every page I tore from time
1:04
Every truth I couldn’t buy
1:07
Chorus
1:12
‘Cause the answer wasn’t in my pocket
1:12
Wasn’t waiting in my car
1:20
I chased deliverance through open doors
1:23
Never made it very far
1:27
But when my broken spirit cracked my heart
1:30
And I fell down on my knees
1:33
I found a greater plane above the pain
1:36
And mercy looking back at me
1:39
Verse 2
1:48
Our calendar is numbered now
1:48
The days don’t ask us how or why
1:51
We choose the season that we sow
1:55
Till all the bread is gone somehow
1:58
No heir to wear this borrowed crown
2:01
No name to carve when I’m laid down
2:04
So I’ll cast my throne into the wind
2:07
Pray a worthy soul begins again
2:11
Pre-Chorus
2:14
I was promised gold that never ends
2:14
But fortune’s just a fair‑weather friend
2:17
Chorus
2:23
And the answer wasn’t in my pocket
2:23
Wasn’t shining in my car
2:27
I chased deliverance through open doors
2:30
Never made it very far
2:34
But when my broken spirit cracked my heart
2:37
And I finally let me be
2:40
I saw a greater plane above the pain
2:43
Where grace was waiting patiently
2:46
Bridge
2:52
Now the curtain’s drawing closer
2:52
As I round the final bend
2:55
Every loss became a teacher
2:58
Every ending, just a send
3:02
I laid my pride down in the dust
3:05
Let go of all I couldn’t trust
3:08
Looked to the cross, said “Here I am”
3:12
Lord, if You can… please help me stand
3:15
Final Chorus
3:20
‘Cause the answer wasn’t in my pocket
3:21
Wasn’t written in the stars
3:25
It was written in surrender
3:28
In these broken, open scars
3:30
When my weary soul was out of breath
3:35
And I had nothing left to start
3:38
I looked to Jesus, asked for grace
3:40
And He rewrote my heartIf I had one answer left to give
3:43
If I had one reason just to live
3:51
It’s that the years that faded me to grey
3:54
Were only wings… to a greater plane
3:57
