So--this is where we are.
After coming so far,
This is what it's come to.
After all we've been through,
We're still where we started:
Bruised and broken-hearted.

You'd think after fighting this long
We'd become safe and strong.
But as we battle close to death,
We're still lost and find no rest.
As we wander 'round, asking why,
There's no tears when we cry.

We're lost with only each other,
Feeling as a child without its mother.
As darkness nears closer and closer,
We fear our lives may be over.

But I caught, in the distance,
A shimmer of light, so persistent.
I grab your hand, holding tight,
As I try to lead you toward the light.

But now you've grown so heavy.
I fear you're dead already.
I can't leave you here all alone.
I have to take you back home.

So won't you please come with me
And believe that I can see
The way out, the way home?
There'll be no more wandering all alone.

So please, rise and stand.
Follow me and hold my hand,
Because together we can win.
We can find the light within.

Thank you
For loving me true,
For being no one but you,
For holding my hand
And helping me stand.

Thank you
For never giving up
And never getting stuck
In the dark times
Where only love shines.

Thank you
For the kind letters
That make me feel better,
For putting up with me,
And loving what you see.

Thank you
Now and forever.
Remember, I'll never
Stop loving you.
What I say is true;
I mean it from my heart,
Even when it's dark.
I love you.
THANK YOU!
