Standing Lyrics
Eyes betray the soul and bare its thinking
Beyond words they say so many things to me
A stranger here reborn, it seems
Awaking wonders deep in me
If nothing's ventured, nothing's gained
So I must seize the dayAnd fighting time, so hard I pray
That this moment lasts forever
And will the world stay standing still at least for me?
Through my eyes stare into me
I bare my heart for all to see
With my face turned to the sun there ever standing stillIt wasn't you, it wasn't me, it wasn't anything
It was a day so long awaited and a chance to be as me
I let the wind run through my hands
As I turned to walk away
In distant days I long to sense it all so clearAnd fighting time so hard I pray
That this moment lasts forever
And will the world stay standing still at least for me?
Through my eyes stare into me
I bear my heart for all to see
With my face turned to the sun there ever standing stillAnd fighting time so much I ask
Will this moment last forever?
Though seasons change and things come to pass
Remain inside of me and fighting time so hard I pray
That this moment lasts forever
And will the world stay standing still at least for me?I had no faith before that time in any vow or deed
Days followed days and years were meaningless
Despite the wisdom of defeat
I bore my heart for all to see the wonders I'd seen
