There'll come a time when love outlasts my insecurities And I'll be unafraid that you're not here with me I hold on and I face another day I hold on urgently to you, to you I let go and my fears begin to fade And now with pride we watch you make your way Clouds overhead, lightning strikes and the thunder roars And I can only hope I've given you some shelter you know it's a stormful world and rain will fall on you Run faster now don't look back ‘till you're far away The hands that harm will try to drag you into shadow You know it's a sunless world and darkness falls on you It's getting close to midnight And soon you'll have to leave The haven of our comforting arms I can feel you searching in the darkness (searching in the darkness!) And I hear you calling out my name (calling out my name!) Search yourself for the part of me still with you My presence there will never fade Walls tumble down you can hide but you know they'll find you And I can't be there every moment for protection You know it's a hostile world and hate may follow you It's getting close to midnight And soon you'll have to leave The haven of our comforting arms I can feel you searching in the darkness (searching in the darkness!) And I hear you calling out my name (calling out my name!) Search yourself for the part of me still with you My presence there will never fade Outcomes can never be certain, But life is a chance that you take, And all that I can do is help you brace for it Light overhead storm clouds part and the darkness fades And in the stillness of a new dawn you're still standing I know it's a frightening world and it's a confusing world But you know that I have to believe you will find the goodness in it With your heart and soul as compass I will pray you find your way And that happiness will follow close behind And peace will fall on you And peace will fall on you And peace will fall on you
