I walk the lonely streets
Where the buildings look down on me
My shadow’s casting doubt on all that I do
I’m worn out from crying, I’m so tired of fighting
In a world that’s so far from home
My heart is still beating
My mind is still dreaming
Of the better days to come
Chorus:
Going to leave it behind
No more tears, no more crying for me
Someday I’ll fly so far away
Run into your arms and meet your embrace
And I can’t wait until that day
When I’ll stand before you face to face
The things that are hollow
Don’t fill me anymore
Take all that I have because it’s already yours
And you take my life and you give me hope
That these days that I fear
Cannot change what I know
You give and You give,
You love and You love
You’ve taken my fears away
