You wonder why you wonder when,
|
You wonder how now and then,
|
How you became who you've become
|
You are here, And yet you dream of being there,
|
Of being where you think the good life has begun
|
|
Every darkened hallway, Every fallen dream,
|
Every battle lost and Every shadow in between
|
Will bring you to your knees and Closer to the reason
|
|
And there's no making cases, For getting out or trading places
|
And there's no turning back, No you are here
|
Who can say who made the choice,
|
In the matter of your birth
|
Who brought about that fateful day,
|
Well you are here and born with fire and desire
|
You're the only one can stand in your own way
|
|
And every broken arrow, Every hardened smile
|
Every foolish gamble and Every lonely mile
|
Will bring you to your knees and Closer to the reason
|
|
And there's no making cases For getting out or trading places
|
And there's no turning back No you are here
|
|
And every sign of love, Every seed that's growing
|
Every sweet surrender To that silent knowing
|
Will bring you to your knees and Closer to the reason
|
|
And there's no making cases For getting out or trading places
|
And there's no turning back No you are here...

You Are Here
