We crawled night and day through the tears and debries
|
Now I'm reaching out to you but I'm keeping my hands clean
|
The tables are turning the tempo slows down
|
And we're gettin' off this misery-go-round
|
It's a brand new world baby now things have changed
|
A brand new picture in a brand new frame
|
A turn of the page with a blink of your eye
|
Our two steps in rhythm our hearts beatin' time
|
On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside
|
|
A critical moment I know you'd agree both of us separate but neither one free
|
We traded our papers for new walking shoes
|
But I had no idea how I'd feel without you
|
We watched it unravel we heard it unwind imprisoned by anger embittered by time
|
No one could tell me we'd be standing here today
|
Steeled by the fire and sealed by the pain
|
On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside
|
|
I'm holding on to you and I know you're holding on to me too
|
We gave it one more chance and found the key to romance
|
Now none of it happens like we think it should be
|
Hey it'd all be disaster if left up to me
|
By the power of love and protection divine
|
We found we hold hands through the darkness and then there was light
|
On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside
|
On the inside it all happened on the inside it all went down on the inside
|
