Lyrics

On one fine day, you came along when I lost my way.
Like being saved, you gave me hope and I saw my pain.
My sense of fear, diminished by a thought so clear.
And when you're near, I lose my fear.

CHORUS
I'm on the upswing, I'm on my way looking down.
I'm on the downside, I'm on my way looking out.

And then one day, you said you had to leave me here.
I had to find the strength inside to walk away.
An find my way to sail uncharted seas again.

CHORUS
I'm on the upswing, I'm on my way looking down.
I'm on the downside, I'm on my way looking out.

BREAK

1st VERSE

CHORUS
I'm on the upswing, I'm on my way looking down.
I'm on the downside, I'm on my way looking out.
