          * thus begins the F
I close my eyes
And I see
What my life has meant to me
What I think might become of me

I wait too long
I might be wrong
And you were always there for me
Until the day I needed you

Show me light
Somewhere
So I can see your face
Show me life
Oh Lord
So I can see your grace

I'm so confused
What do I know?
Who will I be?
Where will I go?

Just wait
Until they come
You will see
You're not alone

You can't run from life now
Cuz there's something you can't face
He will always be with you
This is what I call Grace
There are times when you can't help but wonder
"Is this what I deserve?"
Cuz you just need to reach out and take it
This is what I learned

I close my eyes
Just to forget
Events that took place today
And everything I should have said

Everyone has wants
Everyone has needs
But we always believe
That it'll be better soon
