Lyrics

      
Like the sun, I long to rise,
Shake the dark from weary eyes.
Like the rivers, I seek the sea,
Always searching to be free.
If I dream of joy and light,
If I hope for peace at night,
Then you must feel the same as me,
So I will fight to set you free.
I see your footsteps next to mine,
Walking roads so intertwined.
Your heart beats like mine inside,
So how could I leave you behind?
For you, oh, for you,
I’d turn the grey to shades of blue.
For you, oh, for you,
Every dream, I’d make it true.
I will climb the Everest alone,
Just to bring you the purest stone.
A crystal snowflake, high and bright,
To rest upon your hands so light.
I will steal the desert’s heat,
Trade it for a soft spring breeze.
Carve a river through the stone,
So you will never walk alone.
I see your footsteps next to mine,
Walking roads so intertwined.
Your heart beats like mine inside,
So how could I leave you behind?
For you, oh, for you,
I’d turn the grey to shades of blue.
For you, oh, for you,
Every dream, I’d make it true.
I’d catch the wind, I’d shift the tide,
Move the mountains, stand beside.
If there’s a wall too tall to climb,
I’d break it down, one stone at a time.
And if the world should break apart,
If hope should flicker, weak and scarred,
I’ll gather every shattered spark,
And light a fire inside your heart.
If you’re one or if you’re many,
Doesn’t change what love is plenty.
For you, oh, for you,
I will always see it through.
For you, oh, for you,
I will always see it through.
