chorus:
it’s taken me all this time to see the sun
it’s taken me all these roads to learn how to run
you’ve given me rain to wash away the stuff i thought i knew 
and all that’s left of me is you

v.1:
i’ve been sweeping around this room with a fine 
tooth broom still don’t have a clue i’ve been 
searching for signs of life 
but nothings comin through
i’ve been flipping through pages full of golden rules 
a wealth of tiny truths
tripping over the same old things, i thought i’d long since moved

pc1:
i believe in the helping hand, my fellow man
and the fail-safe “love thy neighbor plan”
the promise, the creed, the other cheek, so help me 
i need to get to you

repeat chorus

v.2: 
you’ve been paving the way, making it straight 
the path has been cleared
i’ve been a little hesitant, but you still find me here
you’ve been flooding my thoughts now i’m breaking 
the locks making my way through i can see to the 
other side and i’m so glad it’s you

pc2:
i believe in the one about reaching out, living 
loud, and all my doubts i believe in what i can’t do 
and i believe, i believe in you

it’s taken me all this time to see the sun
it’s taken me all this time to learn how to run
after the rain has washed away the rust and residue
all that’s left of me is you

bridge:
i believe i can overcome the things that have been 
left undone i believe i have a place to go, somehow 
i know, i will get to you
