Standing on higher ground
You don't make a sound
Trying to get to tomorrow
I'll be a better man
And keep you safer than
All of the ones who will follow
Searching for a deeper meaning
That's right before your eyes
You won't know just what you'll find
'Til you're flying through the sky
Wishing your days away
Everything fades away
Like a New Year's resolution
And after the long goodnight
Wake with the morning light
Hoping to find a solution
Maybe it's just part of the journey
Where no one knows your name
When you finally get where you're going
Will you still feel the same?
So hold on tight through the long, dark night
It'll be alright
And I'll be there to help you
Let go of my hand, but stay in command
Then you'll understand
The world is waiting for you
You don't make a sound
Trying to get to tomorrow
I'll be a better man
And keep you safer than
All of the ones who will follow
Searching for a deeper meaning
That's right before your eyes
You won't know just what you'll find
'Til you're flying through the sky
Wishing your days away
Everything fades away
Like a New Year's resolution
And after the long goodnight
Wake with the morning light
Hoping to find a solution
Maybe it's just part of the journey
Where no one knows your name
When you finally get where you're going
Will you still feel the same?
So hold on tight through the long, dark night
It'll be alright
And I'll be there to help you
Let go of my hand, but stay in command
Then you'll understand
The world is waiting for you
