Joshua Lyrics

There was this boy I knew named Joshua
He wrote poetry and sang songs about love
I got the feeling there was a lack there of
Though I've never known anyone who thinks they've had enough
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e62647-brian_webb~joshua_lyrics.html ]
And I was only 19 way back then
when Joshua liked my girlfriend
And for a week or two I think she liked him
But then she turned around and liked me again

Oh run away with me dear Joshua
Come outside and feel the glory of
the face of God that came and went
and left them out there wonderin'
like thirsty kids with their mouths open
Figuring if it rained before its got to rain again
...rain again

Sometimes I hear my friend on the radio
and it likes to take me back to not so long ago
when all my friends were getting high and feeling low
Yes, but which came first that is hard to know
It's always hard to know

So run away with me dear Joshua
Come outside and feel the glory of
the face of God that came and went
and left you out there wonderin'
like thirsty a kid with his mouth open
Figuring if it rained before its going to rain again
...rain again

Oh run away with me dear Joshua
Come outside and feel the glory of
the face of God that came before
and left us out here just wanting more
Oh come you lovers that I have loved before
Come the ones I don't get to see anymore
...anymore
