Lyrics:

You play my world like a song
Like a ghost who walks in and out of my dreams and
Cascades down my walls
With the laughter of children and all their reckless, wild things
Beneath the sound of consummate joy
I'm running over everything I tell myself
Like I could help but avoid
Running back the story that I sell myself on
From now on
Everything that happens will happen in the shadow of You
You walked into the room like roaring thunder
You terrify me with ease
And defy all my thoughts that somehow still want to believe
That I could evеr be free
On the wandering planеs or the waves of my wide-open seas
Are You terraforming my heart?
'Cause I'm running over everything I tell myself
Am I a fool from the start?
Running back the stories that I sell myself on
From now on
Everything that happens will happen in the shadow of You
You walked into the room like roaring thunder
You flood my house and the walls are turned out with every echo of You
I feel the tremors in my body now
Like roaring thunder
I never could have made You up
With my wildest fabrication
I never could have made You up
With a mile of imagination
With all the colors of a revelation
Still I never could have dreamed You up
I never could have thought of You
You walked into the room like roaring thunder

John Mark McMillan is something of an anomaly: an artist and Platinum-selling songwriter bending genres and defying categorization by carving out his own unique and independent path. With an ear for melody and a poet’s eye for metaphor, no topic has been off-limits. While each of his albums over the past decade have continued to explore new territory, it’s McMillan’s ability to give lyric and language to the human experience that many consider his greatest gift.
