No matter where I go
The crowds are all the same
To them, I'm just
A pebble in the sand
A face without a name
Nobody gives a hang for
What I say or do but you
And in the shelter of your arms
I find peace and comfort and care
For I am wanted there (wanted there)
In this cold world
I struggle to survive
And sometimes I would fall
You think someone
Would lend a helping hand
They'd sooner see me crawl
But just when life itself
Seems more than I can bear
You're there
And in the shelter of your arms
I find strength and safety
And then I rise and start again (start again)
Just give me one good
Reason to go on living
To keep on trying for what
I ask you for what
If not for you and all your
Love to see me through
When times looked bad
The shelter of your arms
Would keep away each fear
And this cold world
Can never get me down
As long as you are near
That's why I pray to God
You'll never say goodbye
And I will know the shelter
Of your arms and your love
Through all of my life
Until the day I die (day I die)
In this cold world No matter where I go The crowds are all the same To them, I'm just A pebble in the sand A face without a name Nobody gives a hang for What I say or do but you And in the shelter of your arms I find peace and comfort and care For I am wanted there (wanted there) In this cold world I struggle to survive And sometimes I would fall You think someone Would lend a helping hand They'd sooner see me crawl But just when life itself Seems more than I can bear You're there And in the shelter of your arms I find strength and safety And then I rise and start again (start again) Just give me one good Reason to go on living To keep on trying for what I ask you for what If not for you and all your Love to see me through When times looked bad The shelter of your arms Would keep away each fear And this cold world Can never get me down As long as you are near That's why I pray to God You'll never say goodbye And I will know the shelter Of your arms and your love Through all of my life Until the day I die (day I die) Explain Request ×
