James T. Slater - God Moves the Pen Lyrics

SHAKESPEARE WRITING ON A PIECE OF PAPER
HANK WILLIAMS SINGING ON AN OLD GUITAR
BOTH OF THEM TRYING TO FIND THE WORDS
FROM SOMEWHERE UP ABOVE THE STARS

I'VE SEEN IT THERE IN OLD LOVE LETTERS
STUCK TO THE FRIDGE ON A POST IT NOTE
RED LIPSTICK ON A BATHROOM MIRROR
OR TUCKED IN THE POCKET OF A COWBOY'S COAT

WRITTEN IN THE SKY, WRITTEN IN THE SAND
ON THE BACK OF A CAR, DRAGGING OLD TIN CANS
TRUE LOVE DECLARED, WITH BRUSH AND PAINT
WAY UP THERE ON A SMALL TOWN WATER TANK
CARVED IN OAK, OR TATTOOED ON THE SKIN
LOVE MOVES THE HEART, BUT GOD MOVES THE PEN

IT'S I MISS YOU DADDY IN BLUE CRAYOLA
X'S AND O'S IN SIDEWALK CHALK
AND I'VE SEEN I HEART JENNY ON AN OVERPASS
WHEN THE TONGUE WAS JUST TOO TIED TO TALK

WRITTEN IN THE SKY, WRITTEN IN THE SAND
ON THE BACK OF A CAR, DRAGGING OLD TIN CANS
TRUE LOVE DECLARED, WITH BRUSH AND PAINT
WAY UP THERE ON A SMALL TOWN WATER TANK
CARVED IN OAK, OR TATTOOED ON THE SKIN
LOVE MOVES THE HEART, BUT GOD MOVES THE PEN

SO WRITE IT IN THE SKY, WRITE IT IN THE SAND
ON THE BACK OF A CAR, DRAGGING OLD TIN CANS
TRUE LOVE DECLARED, WITH BRUSH AND PAINT
WAY UP THERE ON A SMALL TOWN WATER TANK
CARVED IN STONE, OR TATTOOED ON THE SKIN
LOVE MOVES THE HEART, LOVE MOVES THE HEART
LOVE MOVES THE HEART, BUT GOD MOVES THE PEN ...
