You were born into a strange world
Like a candle, you were meant to share the fire
I don't know where we come from
I don't know where we go
But my arms were made to hold you
So I will never let you go
'Cause you were born
To change this life
You were born
To chase the light
'Cause you were born
Love your mother
Yeah, she's a good one
She'll build you armor, keep you warm as a hen
The stars may fall
The rains may pour
But I will love you evermore
'Cause you were born
To make this right
'Cause you were born
To chase the light
'Cause you were born
Oh my precious
Oh my love
When they come to take me
I will hold you from above
I don't know why we're here
And I don't know how
But I'm here with you now
I am here with you now
'Cause you were born
To make this right, 'cause you were born
To change this life, 'cause you were born
To chase the light, 'cause you were born
