I could never understand the meaning of our lives   Just at the moment when we let it slip away   Turning back the pages like a chapter   In a book filled with pain      Shadowed by a darkened sky   My eyes just let you   Pass me by forever, lost forever, all alone   Taken where the lonely go to places      They can never call their own   You're never home   I'm falling, falling, falling   But a light shines from above      I'm captured by the moment   Rescued by the arms of love   Darling, darling, darling   It's you I'm dreaming of      Take me where that light shines   I'll be rescued by the arms of love   Close your eyes, your mind will see   That life is still a mystery      A hidden game of cheating and pretend   Leave your heart with shallow friends   They'll turn around and hurt you in the end   It never mends      Why do I keep holding on forever?   A thousand tears, I'm drowning in this river   I want this love, I need this love
