Matthew West
"The Turnaround"


This rock is tied around my ankle
This thorn is buried in my skin
I wonder why I have to struggle
But then again
If I wasn't drowning I wouldn't need you to save me
If I wasn't broken I wouldn't need you to heal me
You keep me broken

Don't let this river get lost in the ocean
Don't let this rock take me down, down, down
My heart is standing at the edge of the world
I need you
To help me make the turnaround

So many puzzles with no answers
So many questions with no peace
So many second guesses
But then again I guess
If I wasn't drowning I wouldn't need you to save me
If I wasn't broken I wouldn't need you to heal me
Oh Lord I'm drowning

Don't let this river get lost in the ocean
Don't let this rock take me down, down, down
My heart is standing at the edge of the world
I need you
To help me make the turnaround

I need you
I know I need you
