Standing

Eyes betray the soul and bear its thinking

Beyond words, they say so many things to me

A stranger here, reborn it seems

Awaking wonders deep in me

If nothing's ventured, nothing's gained

So I must seize the day

And fighting time, so hard I pray

That this moment lasts forever

And will the world stay standing still, at least for me

Through my eyes, stare into me

I bear my heart for all to see

With my face turned to the sun, there ever standing still

It wasn't you, it wasn't me, it wasn't anything

It was a day so long awaited and a chance to be as me

I let the wind run through my hands

Before I turned to walk away

In distant days, I long to sense it, all so clear

And fighting time, so hard I pray

That this moment lasts forever

And will the world stay standing still, at least for me

Through my eyes stare into me

I bear my heart for all to see

With my face turned to the sun, there ever standing still

And fighting time, so much I ask

I will this moment last forever

Though seasons change and things come to pass

Remain inside of me

And fighting time, so hard I pray

That this moment lasts forever

And will the world stay standing still, at least for me

I had no faith before that time in any vow or deed

Days followed days and years were meaningless

Despite the wisdom of defeat

I bore my heart for all to see, the wonders I'd seen

The wonders I'd seen

And fighting time, so hard I pray

That this moment lasts forever

And will the world stay standing still, at least for me

Through my eyes stare into me

I bear my heart for all to see

With my face turned to the sun, there ever standing still

And fighting time, so much I ask

I will this moment last forever

Though seasons change and things come to pass

Remain inside of me

And fighting time so hard I pray

That this moment lasts forever

And will the world stay standing still, at least for me
