VERSE: All of my life, I've Seen light of the day pass away With the pages that I might have let slip away But all of my life, I've Seen this light that Finds a way to Move the darkness aside CHORUS: Oh, oh, oh One bright and early morning I'm gonna find my way 'Cause I've seen tomorrow's promise Fail one too many times And I've yet to find my way I've yet to find my way VERSE: All of my dark days Pass away In the light of your eyes When everyone else walks away You've stayed the same When people have changed I can't, I won't Let this moment slip away BRIDGE: I'm looking for a sunrise I'm looking for your eyes I know that You're right beside me

CHORUS: I could find a thousand ways to show you To show you I love you To show you I do VERSE: I'd paint a picture in the sky To catch your eyes Attach a tune to every wave And let the ocean sing Sing my song to you I thought I hit rock bottom With no where to go But the more I see your face I realize I'll never know the end of this road I'm still fallin' in love VERSE: I can make it crystal clear for you I'd take the pouring rain for you And make the great exchange You take the rainbow I'll take pain… It's okay. The more I fall in love with you It seems my words are few I just can't find the words to say… I just want you to know I love you BRIDGE: And if I wrote another love song Would you sing along I could sing in other languages So you could hear the song love sings Love's song to you Wo ai ni (Chinese/Mandarin), Ta'ha behki (Arabic), Te amo (Spanish), S'agapo (Greek), I could find a thousand ways To show you VERSE: There's one place I'd rather be One face I'd rather see I'm in love, I'm in love There's a thousand ways to show my Love But only way to prove I'm Yours And You're mine For You I'd die

VERSE: Little girl Innocence and purity in my eyes No shame, no fear, no need for the lies I say I wanna fly, so I close my eyes Skyline, nightrise, bird's eyes You can be whatever you want Mama told me as I sat in the skies Young in the world's eyes Just young enough to believe I can fly Then I fell He was babysittin' me again Sit on my lap and I'll show you something Innocence was all I knew Still tryna learn how to tie my shoe I knew something was wrong He grabbed my hips and asked for a kiss He said I won't be long Just watch TV and move like this There it went, Moving me, changing me, rearranging me Strippin' me of my dignity Murdering all my purity Leaving me feelin' dirty Before I knew what was stolen from me Here it goes Now I'm wondering Should I be telling somebody Or keep it to myself And hope that it was all a dream Hope that it was all a dream PRE-CHORUS: My grandma said There's a God up there Who's surely alive She promised me He cares My grandma said There's a God up there Who loves me She said loves me CHORUS: Make me a believer Though I've never seen Your face I wanna be a believer I wanna know Love again VERSE: Ready for the world, money in my gaze A momentary glance at life that I made A gaze in the eyes of the child that I made Gripped by shame, I walked away Waitress by day, mistress by night Gotta pay the bills, gotta keep the lights on And I can still hear mama Like I'm sittin' in the sky It seems to be true I've forgotten how to fly If I could just remember how to fly I'd close my eyes and fly away Complicated situations Leaving me frustrated So I'm standing on the roof 35th floor Waitin on the next wind to blow I'll let it all go Maybe I'll fly away If not, I'll die today There it went Moving me, changing me, draining me Strippin' me of all my dreams and my dignity Leaving me feelin' defeated and worthless Aimlessly watching the same old scene The same old scene

INTRO: I never knew the streets We neva did meet My name's not Dre Nah, I neva made beats Manana Santana Yeah, I play these strings So, you can hear His heart sing Listen to His heart beat VERSE: Now, you looking at me with eyes wide open Yeah, I spit a few bars But that ain't nothin' I heard a story 'bout a girl like you Her smile paintin' pictures But all I see is the blues Moonlight makin' waves in her face I cried as the diamonds dripped cold from her face Cold day in September Daddy said he'd be back, but she don't remember The last time she saw him Could that be why she's looking for a mister or a sister Innocence wrote her Just to tell her that he missed her PRE-CHORUS: And her heart's still broken Yeah, her heart's still broken And she'll do whatever it takes Looking for a love that can fill that place Whatever it takes (Come love) And fill that place Every time you cried Every sleepless night I could hear your heart beat CHORUS: I just wanna know that you're around When I'm feeling topsy turvy When my world's spinnin' upside down I just wanna know that you're around Just to know you're there Just to know you're there for me Just to know you're there for me VERSE: Again I neva knew the streets We neva did meet I had the perfect life That's what told me They neva did see that I felt so alone Tryna figure out what makes a house a home This alcoholic, drug addict, Hitler in my home At times to afraid just to leave my light on Hey Marvin, what's going on? The American dream, it isn't what it seems The prettiest people Do the ugliest thing Hey Kanye Family in shreds Working nine to five just to get the latest threads BRIDGE: How sick am I Of how we've implied That everyone knows How your life goes Behind closed doors Beneath the scars Well I'm under the stars screamin' God can ya hear me? God can ya hear me now? God can ya hear me? God can ya hear me? God can ya hear me now? Can ya hear my heartbeat?

VERSE: I've been sitting here For a long, long, long, long time Froze by the faces of men Paralyzed by time I've come to realize That if I put my gaze in Your eyes I'll find freedom I'll see Your gaze is my prize VERSE: I've been sitting here For a long, long, long, long time Looking for the light show of my life All wrapped up in vanities of this time I've made up my mind That I can't go another day without You Sick and tired of being sick and tired So I'll come to You CHORUS: Over the stars Beyond the moon At heaven's balcony You look You are searching Here I am Look at me, God Look at me VERSE: Man failed me time and time again Breaking every promise I've come to know That truth don't mean nothing to them I know, I know That You are faithful to the end I don't know when eternity's over But I will follow You till then BRIDGE: I ain't found nothin' Till I've found You You search the whole wide world Could You find me too
