So after all these one night stands

You've ended up with heart in hand

A child alone

On your own

Retreating

Regretful for the things you're not

And all dreams you haven't got

Without a home

A heart of stone

Lies bleeding



And for all the roads you followed

And for all you did not find

And for all the things you had to leave behind



I am the way

I am the light

I am the dark inside the night

I hear your hopes

I feel your dreams

And in the dark

I hear your screams

Don't turn away

Just take my hand

And when you make your final stand

I'll be right there

I'll never leave

All I ask of you

Believe

Your childhood eyes were so intense

While bartering your innocence

For bits of string

Grown-up wings

You needed



But when you had to add them up

You found that they were not enough

To get you in

Pay for sins repeated



And for all the years you borrowed

And for all the tears you cried

And for all the fears you had to keep inside



I am the way

I am the light

I am the dark inside the night

I hear your hopes

I feel your dreams

And in the dark

I hear your screams

Don't turn away

Just take my hand

And when you make your final stand

I'll be right there

I'll never leave

And all I ask of you is

Believe
