|
I had something |
|
It fell from me |
|
Something strong |
|
Like a pounding drum |
|
Like ringing bells |
|
When I was young |
|
I had something |
|
And it was gone |
|
I had something |
|
Made me walk all night |
|
Made me run from home |
|
Made me fight |
|
I had something |
|
Made me feel alone |
|
Like an orphan |
|
Waiting for a home |
|
Every footstep that I take |
|
Completes the circle my life makes |
|
Every living thing has ties that bind |
|
What I lost returns with love and time |
|
I heard something |
|
It called to me |
|
And it told me |
|
I was saved |
|
Not by God |
|
And not by words |
|
Not by any living thing |
|
It was the voice that I once knew |
|
Of my daughter or my son |
|
Not yet born |
|
And not yet known |
|
Another orphan waiting for a home |
|
Every footstep that I take |
|
Completes the circle my life makes |
|
Every living thing has ties that bind |
|
What I lost returns with love and time |
|
Every living thing has ties that bind |
|
What I lost returns with love and time |
