What do you do when they turn on the light? |
|
You guard your heart, so they steal your sight |
|
You reach out in blindness, touch the alone |
|
Its icicle fingers chill you to the bone |
|
What do you do when the cat gets ya tongue? |
|
No way to tell it's all going wrong |
|
Mouth out the words on the telephone |
|
Nobody answers, nobody's home... |
|
What's done has been done, and |
|
I won't be the one |
|
Who despairs in the wheelchair, resigned to "If only" |
|
No, I'll stand up again and |
|
I'll run I'll jump up till |
|
I touch the sun |
|
Because I won't be the one to be bound |
|
By the sound of "If only, if only, if only" |
|
Well, I reach out in blindness now, but what do |
|
I care? I'll walk into walls and |
|
I'll stumble downstairs |
|
I'll laugh like a fishwife, |
|
I'll cry like a clown |
|
Up is the only way to go when you're down |
|
When I reach a mountain top, then |
|
I start to climb |
|
I'll walk on the water, |
|
I'll turn water to wine |
|
Hope is the one thing we got on our side |
|
Hope can be salvaged when all else has died |
|
What's done has been done, and |
|
I won't be the one |
|
Who despairs in the wheelchair, resigned to "If only" |
|
No, I'll stand up again and |
|
I'll run I'll jump up till |
|
I touch the sun |
|
Because I won't be the one to be bound |
|
By the sound of "If only, if only, if only" |
|
What's done has been done, and |
|
I won't be the one |
|
Who despairs in the wheelchair, resigned to "If only" |
|
No, I'll stand up again and |
|
I'll run I'll jump up till |
|
I touch the sun |
|
Because I won't be the one to be bound |
|
By the sound of "If only, if only, if only" |
