The Awakening

Verse 1: I haven't felt this awake in years Was too busy drying my tears To feel the sun was shining on my skin Locked up in my own cage Filled up with a bitter rage I couldn't see the prison I was in I walked across the line alone To find a truth I'd never ever known The truth has been here all this time The only one who couldn't see was me Chorus: And I have been waiting for this awakening for so long, so long I gotta get a little light inside And I'm here holding out for just one thing And it's your love, your love It makes everything feel alright I was slowly slowly dying, slowly dying It's like the first day I'm alive Verse 2: Float through me like summer breeze Put my twisted mind at ease And all the troubles of the world just drift away Jump out like a shooting star I make a wish to be where you are And underneath your glow is where I'll stay The only place I want to be Is right here with you next to me Chorus: And I have been waiting for this awakening for so long, so long I gotta get a little light inside And I'm here holding out for just one thing And it's your love Makes everything feel alright I was slowly slowly dying, slowly dying It's like the first day I'm alive I've been awakening for so long, so long I've been awakening for so long, so long And I walked across the line alone To find a truth I've never ever known The truth was there all this time The only one who couldn't see was me Chorus: And I have been waiting for this awakening for so long, so long I gotta get a little light inside And I'm here holding out for just one thing And it's your love Makes everything feel alright
