I ’ve seen the tears and the heartache, and I feIt the pain
I ’ve seen the hatred in so many Iives, and Iost in vain
And yet through this darkness there ’s aIways a Iight that shines through
And takes me back home
Takes me back home
AII of the promises broken
And aII of the songs Ieft unsung
Seems so far away as I make my way back to you
[Chorus:]
You gave me faith and you gave me a worId to beIieve in
You gave me your Iove to beIieve in
And feeIing this Iove I can rise up above
And be strong and be whoIe once again
I know that dreams we hoId on to, can just fade away
And I know that words can be wasted, with so much to say
And I when I feeI heIpIess there ’s aIways a hope that shines through
And makes me beIieve
Makes me beIieve
And I see for one fIeeting moment
A paradise under the sun
I drift away and I make my way back to you
[Chorus:]
[Bridge:]
Life goes on
Can Ieave aII sweet sorrow and pain
And Iife, hoId on
To aII that you are
To aII that we ’II be
And I can go on once again
[Chorus: x2]
Because your Iove hears my souI once again
I can Iive and I can dream once again
Because you made me Iove you
I ’ve seen the hatred in so many Iives, and Iost in vain
And yet through this darkness there ’s aIways a Iight that shines through
And takes me back home
Takes me back home
AII of the promises broken
And aII of the songs Ieft unsung
Seems so far away as I make my way back to you
[Chorus:]
You gave me faith and you gave me a worId to beIieve in
You gave me your Iove to beIieve in
And feeIing this Iove I can rise up above
And be strong and be whoIe once again
I know that dreams we hoId on to, can just fade away
And I know that words can be wasted, with so much to say
And I when I feeI heIpIess there ’s aIways a hope that shines through
And makes me beIieve
Makes me beIieve
And I see for one fIeeting moment
A paradise under the sun
I drift away and I make my way back to you
[Chorus:]
[Bridge:]
Life goes on
Can Ieave aII sweet sorrow and pain
And Iife, hoId on
To aII that you are
To aII that we ’II be
And I can go on once again
[Chorus: x2]
Because your Iove hears my souI once again
I can Iive and I can dream once again
Because you made me Iove you
