|
The light of day is fading |
|
To bid the darkness in |
|
When empty smiles can never hide the hollowness within |
|
My thoughts race by like the scene outside |
|
Through the windows of the train |
|
I could cover my eyes but never hide |
|
From the promises I made |
|
If I was a better man |
|
Or a poor man or a king |
|
Would I have the strength to start again |
|
Walk the path that called to me |
|
Somewhere out there waiting |
|
Is a place where I'll know peace |
|
Calling out and beckoning |
|
Be I a poor man or a king |
|
The station long departed |
|
My fate entrusted to the rails |
|
No certain destination |
|
Except the life I'll hope to make |
|
But were the choice presented |
|
Couldn't relinquish or bequeath |
|
The walls I built around the truth |
|
I closely guard within |
|
If I was a better man |
|
Or a poor man or a king |
|
Would I have the strength to start again |
|
Walk the path that called to me |
|
Somewhere out there waiting |
|
Is a place where I'll know peace |
|
Calling out and beckoning |
|
Be I a poor man or a king |
|
Give me your hand |
|
Take your place here next to me |
|
Let us walk this road together |
|
No matter where it leads |
|
Put aside your burdens |
|
Put away your fears |
|
Or I'll carry them as I'd carry you |
|
Until the very end |
|
Somewhere out there waiting |
|
Is a place where we'd know peace |
|
That calls to us |
|
That beckons us |
|
The place where we'd be free |
|
Put aside your burdens |
|
Put away your fears |
|
I'd carry them as I'd carry you |
|
'Till the very end |
|
Put aside your burdens |
|
Put away your fears |
|
I'd carry them as I'd carry you |
|
Until the very end |
|
Somewhere out there waiting |
|
Is a place where we'd know peace |
|
Calling out and beckoning |
|
A place where we'd be free |
