I saw her stand before the mirror and gather up her courage   The world's a scary place to be a woman   Every day she goes outside, and hopes someone will look inside   And every day it fails, but she's determined      He's restless as he sits down at the table in the corner   He thought this time he'd do a little better   But when she said she was in love, he said that he had had enough   He knew she'd get too close if he would let her      And we've all thought we felt it,   For a moment, thought we felt it      CHORUS:   Way down low, in our bones   Way down deep,   oh we can barely hear a cry   Way down low, beneath the soul   There is a fire we have held too long inside   (Way down low)      I saw her laugh and hope they didn't see that they had hurt her   She thought she should be used to them by now   It all had happened years ago, but people just don't let things go, I guess   It's hard to find forgiveness in a small town      He's losing sleep and spending every waking hour at work   Sounds ambitious, but he's going through the motions   The busy-ness only conceals the worthlessness he really feels,   So he's putting all his hope in a promotion      And we've all thought we felt it   For a moment, thought we felt it      CHORUS      And I just want to raise the question,   What if there is more?   If it's emptiness we're feeling,   Is there something we're made for      CHORUS
