Where I long to be

This song is about wanting to be with God and no place else. It's my 2nd favourite track on the album.

I am a singer/songwriter.
I am Laura. I taught myself how to play the guitar 5/6 years ago. I took piano lessons ever since I was 4 and let go of it at the age of 13. I find nothing interesting in playing the piano. I don't spend most of the time creating something new, instead I'm playing pieces of music. I find it dull. I started picking up the guitar and strumming it. My dad had 2. After picking up the guitar, I find it very easy to play although the fingers hurt. I started playing songs at first and find that I learn new things everytime I do that. Now that I come to think of it, piano's exactly the same.. you play somebody's pieces and after you know better, you make your own. Well, guess piano isn't for me. So, here I am.. typing this crazy biography/introduction. I started writing last year (2003). I couldn't believe myself when I finish up with a full stop. I created a song. Since then, I've been expressing myself through songs and it's amazing. Music will always be my hobby, my love. I hope to grow in the years to come, in singing, playing and writing.

Story behind the song
I was alone waiting for my mum to come pick me up from church one afternoon. I felt very relaxed but lots of thoughts are going through my head. I took my guitar up and wrote this song. It's very meaningful and it is the longest track on the album coz it's just very overwhelming to keep on singing it again and again. I also later found out that this is also one of the Psalms.
Lyrics
I THIRST FOR YOU O LORD I THIRST FOR YOUR LOVE I LONG TO WORSHIP YOU I LONG TO PRAISE YOUR NAME CHO: IT IS YOU WHO DIED FOR ME AND I COULD NEVER DOUBT IT IS YOU WHO LOVES ME MORE THAN ANYBODY WILL LET ME BE THE ONE YOU LOVE FOR I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT YOU IN YOUR PRESENCE O LORD IS WHERE I LONG TO BE
