There was no time for pain, no energy for anger
The sightlessness of hatred slips away
Walking through winter streets alone
He stops and takes a breath, with confidence and self controlI look at the world and see no understanding
I'm waiting to find some sense of strength
I'm begging you from the bottom of my heart
To show me understandingI need to live life like some people never will
So find me kindness, find me beauty, find me truth
When temptation brings me to my knees
And I lay here drained of strength
Show me kindness, show me beauty, show me truthThe way your heart sounds makes all the difference
It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel
The way your heart beats makes all the difference
In learning to liveHere before me is my soul
I'm learning to live
I won't give up till I've no more to give
No more to give!Listening to the city
Whispering its violence
I set out watching from aboveThe nineties bring new questions
New solutions to be found
I'd fell in love to be let downOnce again we dance in the crowds at times a step away
From a common fear that's all spread out
Won't listen to what you sayOnce you're touched you stand alone
To face the bitter fight
Once I reached for love
And now I reach for lifeAnother chance to live my life
To free the sensation in my heart
To ride the wings of dreams
In the changing horizonsIt brings inner peace within my mind
As I'm lifted from where I've split my life
I hear an innocent voice
I hear kindness, beauty and trustOooh-oh, oooh-oh, oooh-ooooooh!The way your heart sounds makes all the difference
It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel
The way your heart beats makes all the difference
In learning to liveOh, spread before you is your soul
So forever hold the dreams within our hearts
Through nature's inflexible grace
I'm learning to live
