Lyrics

I've been weak
I've been strong
I've been right
And far too often wrong

There's a place
Deep inside
Never shared
Where I'd run away and hide

(Chorus 1)
Never knew
Where my fate would lead me to
Reaching out
Couldn't see my empty hand
Set adrift
Out to sea
With no wind to carry me
And my hopes
Disappear like grains of sand

In the midst
Of the doubt
Came a light
A voice was calling out

And a touch
Stilled the cries
And I saw
Another world there in your eyes

(Chorus 2)
Then I knew
Where my fate had lead me to
Reaching out
And I found another hand
Though our sea
Had its gails
There was life to fill the sails
Coming home
And together love would stand

(I've been weak
Now we're strong
This is right
It's coming, far too long

There's a place
That is new
For my soul
Had all but died 'till there was you
