Ask Me
Amy Grant by Amy Grant and Tom Hemby Sung by Amy Grant I see her as a little girl hiding in her room To try to wipe away the scent he left behind She takes another bath and she sprays her momma's perfume But it haunts her mind. You see she's his little rag, nothing more than just a waif Maybe she'll find a way through these awful years to disappear. And he's mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heaven Where did He go in the middle of her shame? I see no mercy and no one down here's naming names Ask me if I think there's a God up in the heavens Nobody's naming names. Now she's looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face Still she leaves the light burning in the hall No more frightened little girl, like she's gone without a trace It's hard to sleep at all. Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse Deep inside she's listening for a creaking in the house But noone's left to harm her, she's finally safe and sound There's a peace she's found. Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heaven Where did He go in the middle of her shame? Ask her how she knows there's a God up in the heavens She said His mercy is bringing her life again. Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven (How do you know?) (Where did He go?) Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens (How do you know?) Where did He go in the middle of her shame She's coming to life again. She said his mercy is bringing her life again He's in the middle of her pain In the middle of her shame Mercy brings life He's in the middle Mercy in the middle. So ask me how I know Ask me how I know, yeah Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heaven (How do you know?) Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens (How do you know?) Yeah, ask me how I know (How do you know?) Ask me Ask me Ask me how I know (How do you know?) There's a God up in the heavens Ask me how I know there's a God up in the heavens. |
