THERE WERE TIMES
























THERE WERE TIMES

WHEN I HEARD YOU

CALLING MY NAME

THERE WERE TIMES

WHEN I KNEW

IT WAS YOU

BUT MY HEART

WAS AS SAD

AS THE CRYING

OF A RIVER

AND MY TEARS

WERE LIKE

CRYSTALS OF BLUE


THERE WERE TIMES

IN THE NIGHT

WHEN I COULDN'T

FIND YOU

TIMES I WAS LOST

AND ALONE

YOU LIFTED

MY HEART

FROM THE DARKNESS

AROUND ME

AND HELD ME

AND MADE ME

YOUR OWN


YOU SET ME FREE

ON THE WIND

LIKE AN EAGLE

HELD ME

AND CARRIED

ME HOME

YOU GAVE ME

COURAGE

TO TRUST

IN MY WINGS

UNTIL I

COULD FLY

ON MY OWN
