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
