| The night is so wild, and downstairs the child
|
| Is sleeping, her spirit is free
|
| For more than an hour, I have walked in the rain
|
| I’ve been wondering what she will be
|
| But where are the heroes, where are the dreams
|
| That I had, when I was young
|
| Am I hoping in vain, just to think
|
| She could change anything?
|
| Well, I’m counting on you
|
| I’m counting on you to bring that sweet gentleness
|
| To your world and all that you do
|
| My generation is losing it’s way
|
| We don’t know, what we’re leaving for you
|
| So may there be millions who feel like you do
|
| Oh my love
|
| Chorus:
|
| There is so much to know
|
| There is so far to go
|
| But you are not alone
|
| When this is your world
|
| And I’m counting on you
|
| Come to me, turn to me
|
| Give me your eyes
|
| When you see the mysteries of time
|
| Here, there are those who just live in the past
|
| They will never let history lie
|
| And this sad little island is breaking my heart
|
| With it’s dark shades of green
|
| And as hard as I try
|
| I just cannot see why
|
| This should be
|
| Oh, I’m counting on you
|
| There is so much to know
|
| There is so far to go
|
| But you are not alone
|
| When this is your world
|
| (Chorus)
|
| I’m counting on you
|
| I’m counting on you. |
