Have you ever walked the night alone Like a man against the world? No one takes your side, A boat against the tide. When your faith is shaken, You start to break, And your heart can't find the words. Tossed upon the sand, I give you a man against the world. All the people cheer till the end is near Then the hero takes a fall. They'll drag you through the mud. You're only flesh and blood. Oh I've walked the path from dark to light And have yet to come to terms. Alone I take my stand, I'm only a man against the world. *But love! Like a distant reminder, It tugs at my shoulder, It calls me home. I shout! Can a single voice carry? Can I find santuary, Within your arms? One day when the answer's clearer, One day when I even the score, You'll reach and you'll find me with you, Right beside you, Forever more! But for now I walk the night alone, Like a man against the world. A brand new day will shine, Through the avalanche of time. Though the road is long, But the feeling's strong, And the fire within still burns. Alone I take my stand, I give you a man against the world.
