I'm hanging on
Though the road's been long
With every breath I have sought you
And I live to love thee
I live to die free
I'm like a searchlight upon the sea
Searching faithfully
When the world was new
I dreamt of green fields
Sky of blue
Then youth slipped by and I forgot
My one alibi
And then
As I grew up in school
Blindly learning all their rules
I saw the small boy and the fat girl take
The ridicule
Do you feel the system's misplace you?
Has their system erased you?
If so then be
Like the searchlight upon the sea
Great unknown of my life
Finally I've uncovered you
It is Love alone the world is seeking
Only Love can repay us
For the hardships we must endure
Dark night of my past
Dissolve in the dawn
Of the early morning sun
Shining strong
Moving through me
Something is stirring
An impulse to act
To care and be cared for
As I believe
So all will come true
You'll belong to me
And I'll
I'll belong to you
So with the coming of the dawn
Rise forth and sing your soul song
And then you'll feel you can carry on
And that you truly belong
Somewhere and to someone
Don't you know you belong
Somewhere and to someone?
To the only one
So with the coming of the dawn
Rise forth and sing your soul song
And then you'll feel you can carry on
And that you truly belong
Somewhere and to someone
Don't you know you belong
Somewhere and to someone?
To the only one
So if you find yourself
Kept up on someone else's shelf
Believe in yourself
Be strong and sing your song
I'm hanging on
Though the road's been long
With every breath I have sought you
And I live to love thee
I live to die free
Some say that God's not talking
But with people running everywhere
Who is actually listening?
Does anyone care?
Tell me are we really that unaware
Street smart, shopping cart rollers
In the city beggars picking food out of the trash
Bathing in gutters
Life goes by when you forget
Your one alibi
Your only true ally
Who is actually listening?
Does anyone care?
Tell me are we really that unaware
Life hits hard when we forget
The one!
If you play their fool and they take you
Even if those most cruel try to pull you down
The silent witness knows of your struggle
Always remember how He yearns for your love
Then you'll feel you can carry on
And offering a song to bring
A sign of hope
A prayer to sing
With angelic grace
To ascend to a heavenly place
Mystery of life
Finally I found
'Tis all for Love
It's Love alone the world's seeking
And only Love can repay
All the triumphs
Every tear we cry
The dreams and joys
Our final goodbyes
At long last I know the secret of it all
