Something Lyrics
I had something
It fell from me
Something strong
Like a pounding drum
Like ringing bells
When I was young
I had something
And it was gone
I had something
Made me walk all night
Made me run from home
Made me fight
I had something
Made me feel alone
Like an orphan
Waiting for a home
Every footstep that I take
Completes the circle my life makes
Every living thing has ties that bind
What I lost returns with love and time
I heard something
It called to me
And it told me
I was saved
Not by God
And not by words
Not by any living thing
It was the voice that I once knew
Of my daughter or my son
Not yet born
And not yet known
Another orphan waiting for a home
Every footstep that I take
Completes the circle my life makes
Every living thing has ties that bind
What I lost returns with love and time
Every living thing has ties that bind
What I lost returns with love and time
