Lyrics


I’ve been watching for a long time
Watching out to see
A mysterious dark robed figure
Coming after me

Don’t take it away from me
You can’t take it away
It’s plain to see why can’t you see
That I’m here to stay

Now I’ve been travelling for a long time
Since I can’t remember when
But now it’s time to take some time
To refect my friends
To understand what’s happening
The changes in my life
I’ll start a new beginning
Cause I’ve learned to do what’s right

Don’t take it away from me
You can’t take it away
It’s plain to see why can’t you see
That I’m here to stay x2

As time keeps rolling and drifting by
Without but a single word
I’ve got this feeling it will soon be my time
When I’m just starting to learn
So Please,

Don’t take it away from me
You just can’t take it away
It’s plain to see why can’t you see
That I’m here to stay x3
