Can't Take That Away

Standing in the spotlight - it's hard to see the truth

My time had come to trust someone

Behind my back they knew

Never saw it coming - but my world came crashing down

They gamble on your future - play the coldest game in town

What I've lost in a lifetime

Mistakes it's made me see

What's still in my heart

They can't take that away from me

Beyond all my frusration - there's a fire deep inside

It's been there since I started - I got nothing left to hide

As I climb the stairway - for a piece of higher ground

This time I'm looking straight ahead

Cause it's dangerous looking down

Like a fool I'd been waiting - until you came along

You made a blind man see

Your love made all the difference

And nobody.... can't take that away from me

What I've lost in a lifetime

Mistakes it's made me see

What's still in my soul

They can't take that away from me
