Ne who cares is waiting for your call8004a child
I see her as a little girl hiding in her room
She takes another bath and she sprays her momma s perfume
To try to wipe away the scent he left behind
But it haunts her mind
You see she s his little ragnothing more than just a waif
And he s mopping up his needshe is tired and afraid
Maybe she ll find a way through these awful years to disappear
Ask me if I think there s a God up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame
Ask me if I think there s a God up in the heavens
I see no mercy and no one down here s naming names
Nobody s naming names
Now she s looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face
No more frightened little girllike she s gone without a trace
Still she leaves the light burning in the hall
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 hershe 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 in the middle of her shame
where did he go
Ask me how I know there s a God up in the heavens
how do you know
She said his mercy is bringing her life again
She s coming to 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 knowyeah
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
Yeahask 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
