VERSE 1
Faith is a flame ? light that?s shining bright
When your heart shows you the way and the darkness fades
Hope to face each day
I wanna take away your pain
I wanna see you smile again
I wanna gently wipe your tears away

VERSE 2
If I had a way to tell you all the things that I?ve been through
Feel like I?ve been locked away ? and I don?t know what to do
I wanna break away the chains
I wanna tell you just how much I feel
I wanna find my way back home again

BRIDGE-1
I can?t imagine the way that you must feel
My heart is burning ? the pain is all too real
Was it only yesterday ? everything seemed fine
Nothing is the same again ? won?t someone tell me why

CHORUS
To be so close to you and look into your eyes
There?s a light in you that?s shining through
There?s no way that anybody can take that away
And because of you ? there?s a part of me that?s shining too

VERSE 3
If you could change the world around you, now
And with every breath you give a part of you
Stronger in every way
If we don?t change ourselves today
And try to break the chains
Tomorrow?s gonna be like yesterday

VERSE 4
If I had a way to tell you just how much you mean to me
Every moment that you?re here - almost like a dream
But what am I to do
What can I give to you
I wanna lift you up - like you lifted me

BRIDGE-2
I can?t imagine the way that you must feel
My heart is burning ? the pain is all too real
Was it only yesterday ? everything seemed fine
Nothing is the same again ? won?t someone tell me why
CHORUS
To be so close to you and look into your eyes (?)
MIDDLE-8
You?re the kind the makes the world a better place
When I am weak you?re there to make me strong
And in my darkest hour - I can see the light
Together we are stronger - than just one
The light of love is the power to go on
