I want the sun to shine on me I want the truth to set me free I wish the followers would lead With a voice so strong it could knock me to my knees Hold on world 'cause you don't know what's coming Hold on world 'cause I'm not jumping off Hold onto this boy a little longer Take another trip around the sun If I jumped into the ocean to believe If I climbed a mountain would I have to reach? Do I even dare to speak?--to dream?--believe? Give me a voice so strong I can question what I have seen Hold on world 'cause you don't know what's coming Hold on world 'cause I'm not jumping off Hold onto this boy a little longer Take another trip around the sun Around the sun Around the sun Around the sun Let my dreams set me free. Believe. believe. Now now now now now now

Another year around the sun Guess I've just been having fun Just another year around the sun Making it through Laying back at the end of the day Got nobody to tell, I'm okay Forgot the rules of the games we play, but that's fine People say that I lost my mind I've got nothing to lose, and nothing to find They might say I'm the losing kind but that's fine Another year around the sun Guess I've just been having fun Just another year around the sun Making it through Another year around the sun Guess I've just been having fun Just another year around the sun Making it through Make it, make it, make it through Make it, make it, make it through Make it, make it, make it through Another year around the sun Guess I've just been having fun Just another year around the sun Making it through Another year around the sun Guess I've just been having fun Just another year around the sun Making it through Oh yeah we'll make it through Oh yeah we'll make it through Oh yeah we'll make it through Oh yeah we'll make it through Yeah we'll make it through

Hear my cry in my hungering search for you Taste my breath on the wind See the sky as it mirrors my colors Hints and whispers begin I am living to nourish you, cherish you I am pulsing the blood in your veins Feel the magic and power of surrender To Uisce Beatha Every finger is touching and searching Until your secrets come out In the dance, as it endlessly circles I linger close to your mouth I am living to nourish you, cherish you I am pulsing the blood in your veins Feel the magic and power of surrender To Uisce Beatha

My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real I was so in love with you, I could hardly see My feelings for you have always been real Now after all this time, tell me can't you feel Tell me can't you feel Tell me can't you feel Tell me can't you Tell me can't you Tell me can't you My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real My feelings for you have always been real I was so in love with you, I could hardly see My feelings for you have always been real Now after all this time, tell me can't you feel

I'm about to break A frozen soul Can't let things flow my way But your smile Gives me warmth when you're near In my silence I hope you hear me Call your name And I'm about to break Like the morning sun Burning up the grey And I I can feel your summer light Dissolving me Serenity sublime And I called your name In the dark Of the night
