CHORUS:
IT'S TAKEN ME ALL THIS TIME TO SEE THE SUN
IT'S TAKEN ME ALL THESE ROADS TO LEARN HOW TO RUN
YOU'VE GIVEN ME RAIN TO WASH AWAY THE STUFF I THOUGHT I KNEW
AND ALL THAT'S LEFT OF ME IS YOU
V.1:
I'VE BEEN SWEEPING AROUND THIS ROOM WITH A FINE
TOOTH BROOM STILL DON'T HAVE A CLUE I'VE BEEN
SEARCHING FOR SIGNS OF LIFE
BUT NOTHING'S COMIN' THROUGH
I'VE BEEN FLIPPING THROUGH PAGES FULL OF GOLDEN RULES
A WEALTH OF TINY TRUTHS
TRIPPING OVER THE SAME OLD THINGS, I THOUGHT I'D LONG SINCE MOVED
PC1:
I BELIEVE IN THE HELPING HAND, MY FELLOW MAN
AND THE FAIL-SAFE "LOVE THY NEIGHBOR PLAN"
THE PROMISE, THE CREED, THE OTHER CHEEK, SO HELP ME
I NEED TO GET TO YOU
REPEAT CHORUS
V.2:
YOU'VE BEEN PAVING THE WAY, MAKING IT STRAIGHT
THE PATH HAS BEEN CLEARED
I'VE BEEN A LITTLE HESITANT, BUT YOU STILL FIND ME HERE
YOU'VE BEEN FLOODING MY THOUGHTS NOW I'M BREAKING
THE LOCKS MAKING MY WAY THROUGH I CAN SEE TO THE
OTHER SIDE AND I'M SO GLAD IT'S YOU
PC2:
I BELIEVE IN THE ONE ABOUT REACHING OUT, LIVING
LOUD, AND ALL MY DOUBTS I BELIEVE IN WHAT I CAN'T DO
AND I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE IN YOU
IT'S TAKEN ME ALL THIS TIME TO SEE THE SUN
IT'S TAKEN ME ALL THIS TIME TO LEARN HOW TO RUN
AFTER THE RAIN HAS WASHED AWAY THE RUST AND RESIDUE
ALL THAT'S LEFT OF ME IS YOU
BRIDGE:
I BELIEVE I CAN OVERCOME THE THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN
LEFT UNDONE I BELIEVE I HAVE A PLACE TO GO, SOMEHOW
I KNOW, I WILL GET TO YOU
