When all the salt is taken from the sea
I stand dethroned
I'm naked and I bleed
But when your finger points so savegely
Is anybody there to believe in me
To hear my plea and take care of me?
How can I go on
From day to day
Who can make me strong in every way
Where can I be safe
Where can I belong
In this great big world of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams that we shared
They're lost and they're nowhere to be found
How can I go on?
Sometimes I start to tremble in the dark
I cannot see
When people frighten me
I try to hide myself so far from the crowd
Is anybody there to comfort me
Precious Lord hear my plea - yeah
Lord ... take care of me
How can I go on (how can I go on)
From day to day (from day to day)
Who can make me strong (who can make me strong)
In every way (in every way)
Where can I be safe (where can I be safe)
Where can I belong (where can I beelong)
In this great big world (in this great big world of sadness)
How can I forget (how can I forget)
Those beautiful dreams that we shared (those beautiful dreams that we shared)
They're lost and nowhere to be found
How can I go on?
How can I go on
How can I go on go on go on go on yeah yeah yeah
