All Around Me Lyrics
My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips, for you
This fire runs in through my being
Burning, I'm not used to seeing you
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm alive
I'm alive
[Chorus]
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
[Verse 2]
My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place
The music makes me sway
The angels singing, say "We are alone with you"
I am alone and they are too with you
I'm alive
I'm alive
[Chorus]
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding onto what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
[Bridge]
And so I cry (Holy)
The light is white (Holy)
And I see you
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm alive (I'm alive)
I'm alive (I'm alive)
I'm alive
[Chorus]
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
About
It’s a song about meeting God. I remember looking at a bunch of people’s Myspace when I first saw Myspace and the ‘Who I’d Like To Meet’ the #1 thing people picked was God. I think about that. I don’t know how many times I’ve experienced something where I felt like God showed up and saved me or loved me for no reason sometimes. That’s why I sing this song, I sing it to God. It’s really intimate as well, you can think about it as a relationship between two people in love, too. I never think about it that way, but what’s so cool about that is I think there’s parallels everywhere – in everything in life. I think that that parallel is something that God wants to communicate to us, that he gives us relationships like that, an intimacy like that."
- Lead singer Lacey Sturm, on the radio show LA Lloyd’s Rock 30
Live, Lacey has prefaced “All Around Me” by saying, “This song is for Jesus.”
