My life is extraordinary bare
I fought the fear and chased the pain
My life doesn't need to be explained
I chose to walk the line as one
Sometimes as I live upon my island
Cut off from emotion and its pain
Oh that's when I am tempted by the waters
The waters that can take me far away
So I'll just keep on walking down this open road
Hoping someone somewhere needs me
So I'll just keep on walking down this open road
Talking to the man who knows me
Yes he knows me, the man is me
My life was once full of people's faces
Brought to me by love which isn't strange
Oh my life had the goodness of blue waters
A day's a day for all I used to say
Sometimes I can sit and cry my heart out
Drowning in my autocratic ways
Oh that's when I am tempted by the waters
The waters that can take me far away
So I'll just keep on walking down this open road
Hoping someone somewhere needs me
So I'll just keep on walking down this open road
Talking to the man who knows me
Yes he knows me, the man is me, yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh mmm
Mmm ooh ooh ooh, oh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, oh yeah
My life is now full of people's faces
Within the light of change I pulled away
Oh my life shows that no man is an island
I've exchanged the piece of life I cut away
Now you won't see me walking down that open road
I've found someone now who needs me
No you won't see me walking down that open road
I've found at last the man who knows me (man)
Yes he knows me (man), the man was me (man)
The man was me (mmm)
Stronger every day
Stronger every night
I'm holding out for peace
Now I'm feeling stronger
Watching as this storm goes by
I can see a light
A prisoner of my own desire
My hands are firmly tied
I could just fade away
And live a life unknown
I could be somewhere else
But now I'm heading home
Stronger every day
Stronger every night
I'm holding out for peace
Ready now to fight
Oh, life owes me nothing
I have tasted everything
But I can't wait much longer
Now I'm feeling stronger
Walking from that sheltered world
With no where left to hide
My naked soul is running free
My eyes are open wide
Searching for higher ground
To make my life complete
It's only when you climb that mountain
The world is at your feet
Back
For Good
Take That
I guess now it's time for me to give up
I feel it's time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got your lipstick mark still on your coffee cup
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now
Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
Unaware but underlined I figured out the story
It wasn't good
But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can't you find a little room inside for me
Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
And we'll be together, this time is forever
We'll be fighting and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again
