Standing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Eyes betray the soul and bear it's thinking
Beyond words they say so many things to me
A stranger here reborn it seems
Awaking wonders deep in me
If nothing's ventured nothing's gained
So I must seize the day
And fighting time so hard I pray
That this moment lasts forever
And will the world stay standing still at least for me
Through my eyes stare into me
I bear my heart for all to see
With my face turned to the Sun there ever standing still
It wasn't you it wasn't me it wasn't anyone
It was a day so long awaited and a chance to be as me
I let the wind run through my hands
As I turned to walk away
In distant days I long to sense it all so clear
And fighting time so hard I pray
That this moment lasts forever
And will the world stay standing still at least for me
Through my eyes stare into me
I bear my heart for all to see
With my face turned to the Sun there ever standing still
And fighting time so much I ask
I will this morning last forever
Though seasons change and things come to pass
Remain inside of me
And fighting time so hard I pray
That this moment lasts forever
And will the world stay standing still at least for me
I had no faith before that day in any vow or deed
Days followed days and years were meaningless
Despite the wisdom of defeat
I bore my heart for all to see the wonders I'd seen
