chorus:
itÂ’s taken me all this time to see the sun
itÂ’s taken me all these roads to learn how to run
youÂ’ve given me rain to wash away the stuff i thought i knew
and all thatÂ’s left of me is you

v.1:
iÂ’ve been sweeping around this room with a fine
tooth broom still donÂ’t have a clue iÂ’ve been
searching for signs of life
but nothings comin through
iÂ’ve been flipping through pages full of golden rules
a wealth of tiny truths
tripping over the same old things, i thought iÂ’d long since moved

pc1:
i believe in the helping hand, my fellow man
and the fail-safe “love thy neighbor plan”
the promise, the creed, the other cheek, so help me
i need to get to you

repeat chorus

v.2:
youÂ’ve been paving the way, making it straight
the path has been cleared
iÂ’ve been a little hesitant, but you still find me here
youÂ’ve been flooding my thoughts now iÂ’m breaking
the locks making my way through i can see to the
other side and iÂ’m so glad itÂ’s you

pc2:
i believe in the one about reaching out, living
loud, and all my doubts i believe in what i canÂ’t do
and i believe, i believe in you

itÂ’s taken me all this time to see the sun
itÂ’s taken me all this time to learn how to run
after the rain has washed away the rust and residue
all thatÂ’s left of me is you

bridge:
i believe i can overcome the things that have been
left undone i believe i have a place to go, somehow
i know, i will get to you
