Everything Moves But You

When I was a child, I held to my mother tightly

Then I grew taller and left to follow my dreams

I went after my dreams, and some of them brought me delight

But they didn't bring me everything I hoped they might

I fell into love like a skydiver in the clouds

It wasn't enough, no, we couldn't sustain it ourselves

All the things I pursue

Well, they stay for a season

Then everything moves

Everything moves, oh

My towers fall

But You aren't leaving me

Everything moves but You

I trained my body to run and not be weary

I worked and I read how to raise a better family

Then I bought a good house on the safe side of town, because I could

And as long as my life stays like this, I'm feeling good

Until my bones become brittle against my will

My heart is home, oh, to make the earth stand still

'Cause all the things I pursue

Well, they stay for a season

Then everything moves

Everything moves, oh

My towers fall

But You aren't leaving me

Everything moves but You

You...I never outgrow You

You are a tree always in bloom

You are a hall of endless rooms

A living fountain springing up

I'm satisfied but never done

I'm never done

With You

All the things I pursue

Well, they stay for a season

Then everything moves

Everything moves, oh

My towers fall

But You aren't leaving
