I'm waiting For a shiny new life when I leave the old I'm tired And it's hard to go on when the world goes cold I hunger For a different place He prepares for me I wander Like a rudderless boat on a hostile sea Chorus Deep in the darkness calling me Out to a brand new day I don't want to be left in the back street Pinned down and hidden from the light of day I don't want to be sitting on the curb When I yearn to speed down a distant highway I wonder Will the world ever see what you've done for them? I travel Down the lines on a map with an urgent mission I hunger For a glorious place He prepares for me I wander Like a rudderless boat on a hostile sea 2nd Chorus Deep in the darkness calling me Out to a brand new day I don't want to exchange what You gave me For the worlds nihilistic ways I fight the fear and I cry, Lord save me! Put me back on the narrow highway! I don't want to be left on the back street Pinned down and hidden from the light of day I don't want to be sitting on the curb When I yearn to speed down a distant highway
