Looking back across the past I can see it was never that kind So I turn to the future But I know that it's no friend of mine Every gift I was given Just as fast snatched away All the time I've spent living Seems as much, wasted days
Chorus: So give me a morning That I ain't seen yet Show me an evening When the sun doesn't set Help tame the furies That dance wild in my heart And take my regrets, take my regrets before they take me apart
I lose track of years gone by Since I stood 'neath the stars of my home And though I don't lack companions In a sense I'm always alone Not a thing that I've taken Would I volunteer to give back And though my back is breaking I will never ask you for slack
Chorus
I've fought this fight before nothin's new anymore All my defeats have left me on my feet No surprises in store
