And now I stand, forsaking pride The time has come to turn

the tide I've drawn the line, I've built my wall And I won't let

one more dream fall

All days of innocence, I surrendered long ago

Where's the wind that takes me higher The had that offers

peace The heart that still gives shelterÉ

I wanna go back to find The innocent days that I left behind

I still believe they're holding ground Behind the Battle Lines

If it takes a million miles over land and sea Gonna swim in

the rivers of purity I know they still run free Behind the

Battle Lines

One more mountain I must climb I've scaled so many in my

time And if the sun goes down on me The light of truth will

help me see

All days of innocence, I surrendered long ago

Where's the voice that speaks of mercy The eyes that are not

blind The love that's never endingÉ

A vision of eternity Oh, Lord! Never take the dream from me

Here I am, standing at the edge of destinyÉ
