Lyrics - Not Enough by Caedmons Call


I mount up with waxen wings
High to reach the sun
And
I am no further than
When
I first begun
So
I build a mount of
Athos
To shape your form against the sky
With my home in your hands to show all the people why
To show all the people why(
Chorus)
Everything
I do
It's not enough for you
Everything
I do
It's not enough
It's not enough for you
In the garden of my pride
The lamented lime tree
Too stupid to cry for rain
Fruitless and choked out by weeds
So
I write a book of life
Using the best words
I can find
For some struggler to snuggle up
When the world becomes unkind
When the world becomes unkind(repeat chorus)
I find direction in eastbound clouds
And long for what they might have
But when
I step into its midst
Its substance
I cannot grasp
So
I paint a portrait of you
As if you had human disguise
With oil and canvas to be clay
To open up their eyes
Like you opened up my eyes(repeat chorus twice)-lyrics submitted by
