She wakes up some days life is cruel |
|
She's on a chain gang sittin' in a typin' pool |
|
And her brain feels all dragged down |
|
The gossip flies, the coffee's stale |
|
She wants to run outside and scream like hell' |
|
Til it turns her luck around |
|
Doesn't matter how insane it gets |
|
She's got one dream and her sights set, she says"I'm just waitin' for itI'm just makin' sure that my heart's steady as a drumBrighter days are dawnin'My faith's holdin' strong and I'll be ready when it comes" |
|
He drives around the block a thousand times |
|
He can't go home 'til he clears his mind |
|
And his supper's cold by now |
|
The doctor's words crash through his ears |
|
About a treatment plan and a lot of years |
|
He will live to see somehow |
|
He gathers all his friends and family |
|
He says, "Wrap your lovin' arms around me" |
|
I know, I can do this |
|
Love will get me through this, my heart's steady as a drum |
|
Brighter days are dawnin' |
|
My faith's holding strong, and |
|
I'll be ready when it comes(When it comes) |
|
One light shinin' that is brighter than the sun(When it comes) |
|
Way down deep inside the heart of everyone(When it comes) |
|
I reach past my troubles for the strength to carry on(When it comes) |
|
And find that what |
|
I need was right there all along |
|
I'm just waitin' for it |
|
I'm just makin' sure that my heart's steady as a drum |
|
Brighter days are dawnin' |
|
My faith's holdin' strong, |
|
I'll be ready when it comes |
|
Yes, I will, gonna be ready now, yeah, |
|
I'm gonna be ready now |
|
When it comes, when it comes, my faith is holdin' strong |
|
Brighter days are dawnin', my faith is holdin' strong |
|
I'm gonna be ready when it comes |
