Shining Through

For someone who wants to be free
i keep letting these walls fall on me
how will i ever get to see
beyond the shadows that they cast

This time i have to get it right
learning from the tears of my past
this time it has to be the last time
because there's just only enough room
in my heart for one more try

I look at you with all of my doubts
not knowing what to expect from you
I've tried to imagine all of the scenarios
so many waiting on the sideline to come true

And when we get to look each other in the eye
for a fleeting moment i could almost feel it rushing through
this long lost friend i use to know by my own name
too many have beaten me down to this level can't you see
my self esteem just couldn't take it anymore

But now the sun comes shining through
i can hear the beating of my own heart
deep down i always knew it was there
waiting for the chance to come alive again
and it did bursting way up in the air

So come on and take a chance with me
i promise you that i will take a while
learn what i can give and what I'll take
and i will receive what you want to give to me
hand in hand we will challenge destiny

Hand in hand we will ....challenge destiny

And when we get to look each other in the eye

Too many have beaten me down to this level can't you see
my self esteem just couldn't take it anymore

But now the sun comes shining through
comes shining through
the sun comes shining through

And so do you... and so do you
and so do you... and so do you
you know you do
you come shining through
you..you come shining through
you...you...you..you
come shining through
you come shining...through
