If I Was |
| The light of day is fading |
| To bid the darkness in |
| When empty smiles can never hide the hollowness within |
| My thoughts race by like the scene outside |
| Through the windows of the train |
| I could cover my eyes but never hide |
| From the promises I made |
| If I was a better man |
| Or a poor man or a king |
| Would I have the strength to start again |
| Walk the path that called to me |
| Somewhere out there waiting |
| Is a place where I’ll know peace |
| Calling out and beckoning |
| Be I a poor man or a king |
| The station long departed |
| My fate entrusted to the rails |
| No certain destination |
| Except the life I’ll hope to make |
| But were the choice presented |
| Couldn’t relinquish or bequeath |
| The walls I built around the truth |
| I closely guard within |
| If I was a better man |
| Or a poor man or a king |
| Would I have the strength to start again |
| Walk the path that called to me |
| Somewhere out there waiting |
| Is a place where I’ll know peace |
| Calling out and beckoning |
| Be I a poor man or a king |
| Give me your hand |
| Take your place here next to me |
| Let us walk this road together |
| No matter where it leads |
| Put aside your burdens |
| Put away your fears |
| Or I’ll carry them as I’d carry you |
| Until the very end |
| Somewhere out there waiting |
| Is a place where we’d know peace |
| That calls to us |
| That beckons us |
| The place where we’d be free |
| Put aside your burdens |
| Put away your fears |
| I’d carry them as I’d carry you |
| 'Till the very end |
| Put aside your burdens |
| Put away your fears |
| I’d carry them as I’d carry you |
| Until the very end |
| Somewhere out there waiting |
| Is a place where we’d know peace |
| Calling out and beckoning |
| A place where we’d be free |
