Lyrics
So after all these one night stands,
You've ended up with heart in hand,
A child alone on your own, retreating.
Regretful for the things you're not,
And all the dreams you haven't got,
Without a home, a heart of stone, lies bleeding.
And for all the roads you followed,
And for all you did not find,
And for all the dreams you had to leave behind...
Chorus:
I am the way, I am the light,
I am the dark inside the night.
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams,
And in the dark I hear your screams.
Don't turn away, just take my hand,
And when you make your final stand.
I'll be right there, I'll never leave.
All I ask of you is believe.
Your childhood eyes were so intense,
While bartering your innocence,
For bits of string, the grown-up wings you needed.
And when you had to add them up,
You found that they were not enough,
To get you in pay for sins repeated.
And for all the years you borrowed,
And for all the tears you cried,
And for all the fears you had to keep inside...
(Repeat Chorus)
