I get it wrong more than I get it right
No time machine to go back
On my own, my ship is sinking fast
No superpower to call on in the fight
I'm not the hero like that
On my own, my rocket's bound to crash
Oh, I'm done looking for the water in the desert
'Cause every time it's leaving me dry
I walked the world looking for something better
Ooh-ooh-ooh, Why would I run anywhere that the world dried up before?
Why would I chase anything that always leaves me wanting more?
All that the world ever offers is counterfeit diamonds
Ooh, no other peace, other grace, other heart is as priceless as Yours
I run to the Source
Now that I found water deep enough to dive
I can't go back to the shore
Next to You, God, everything's full of gold
Ooh, I'm done looking for the water in the desert
'Cause every time it's leaving me dry
I walked the world looking for something better
Ooh-oooh-ooh, Why would I run anywhere that the world dried up before?
Why would I chase anything that always leaves me wanting more?
All that the world ever offers is counterfeit diamonds
Ooh, no other peace, other grace, other heart is as priceless as Yours
I run to the . . .
. . . to the Source of peace
(there when I need it)
. . . to the Source of hope
(keeping me believing)
It's the Source of life
(giving mine a reason)
Ooh-ooooh-ooh
You're the Source of peace
(there when I need it)
You're the Source of hope
(keeping me believing)
You're the Source of life
(giving mine a reason)
Why would I run anywhere that the world dried up before?
Why would I chase anything that always leaves me wanting more?
All that the world ever offers is counterfeit diamonds
Ooh, no other peace, other grace, other heart is as priceless as Yours
I run to the Source
