|
Wipe the tears from your eyes |
|
It's time for leaving but not goodbye |
|
You don't know what it's like |
|
They went and took the best years of my life |
|
And they broke all our hearts |
|
But not our spirit while we were apart |
|
Now it's their turn to pay |
|
But they can't give back what they took away |
|
Oh I've waited such a long time |
|
That I can't believe it's true |
|
That somebody finally realized |
|
It wasn't me or you |
|
I wanna stand on the streets tonight |
|
Out of the shadows and into the light |
|
I wanna stand on the streets tonight |
|
Out of the shadows and into the light |
|
Who do you think you are? |
|
If you've got problems I'll show you my scars |
|
So don't turn away, you better listen |
|
I've something to say |
|
There's a wrong and a right |
|
And there's a law if you're black or you're white |
|
So we all make mistakes |
|
Like being born in the wrong time and place |
|
Crossing weeks and months off on a wall |
|
Counting hours in a day |
|
Writing letters well into the night |
|
There was no other way |
|
I wanna stand on the streets tonight |
|
Out of the shadows and into the light |
|
I wanna stand on the streets tonight |
|
Out of the shadows and into the light |
|
I'll take it all, take what's mine |
|
Cause all i ever got was time |
|
Take it all, take what's mine |
|
And maybe it will work out fine |
|
Wipe the tears from your eyes |
|
It's time for leaving but not goodbye |
|
You don't know what it's like |
|
They went and took the best years of my life |
|
And they broke all our hearts |
|
But not our spirit while we were apart |
|
Now it's their turn to pay |
|
But they can't give back what they took away |
|
I wanna stand on the streets tonight |
|
Out of the shadows and into the light |
|
I wanna stand on the streets tonight |
|
Out of the shadows and into the light |
