Standin' in a streetlight,
Watching darkness fade.
The sun is coming up now
Another day is made.
But last night was so awful,
There I stood alone,
Waiting for the sun to rise.
I still had my soul-
But I had paid the price.
Don't let go of my hand,
My knees are still too weak to stand!
Don't let go of my hand,
So I can see the dawn again.
You came up to greet me:
"It will be okay.
The sun is coming up now,
Another day is made."
Pulled into an embrace, you
Warmed my frozen heart.
You broke down my barriers.
I still had my soul-
But I had paid the price.
Don't let go of my hand,
And I am still trying to stand!
Don't let go of my hand,
So I can see the dawn again.
"You have no need to worry
I will protect you.
The sun is high above us,
It is now today."
And last night was forgotten,
As you spoke those words.
"Sleep now I will protect you."
I still had my soul-
But I had paid the price.
Don't let go of my hand,
A little weak but I can stand!
Don't let go of my hand,
So I can see the dawn again.
Now we stand together,
Watching sunlight fade.
The moon is coming up now,
Another night is made.
The darkness tears at my soul,
Bu we'll not stand alone.
I'll hold on to you forever.
And will I have a soul, who knows?
You are too big a price.
Don't let go of my hand!
Keep an arm around my waist and
Together we will stand!
We will see the dawn again
