For so many years I've tasted tears
|
Prayed for all the pain to go away
|
And leave me alone
|
All that time I was unaware
|
That love was around me everywhere
|
But somehow I did not know
|
And I've learned to live with things
|
That I cannot change
|
It took me so long to get to this place
|
|
But I have arrived (I have arrived)
|
I have arrived
|
I've been through hell and back
|
But I survived
|
Yeah and I'm stronger - I've conquered
|
Every fear that held me under
|
I'm seeing life through different eyes
|
And I have arrived
|
|
I've held the hand of a dyin' friend
|
And still I cannot comprehend the loss
|
Or the pain it caused
|
I felt bitterness and deep despair
|
Struggled with life ain't fair at all
|
Yeah, I carried that cross
|
And I prayed to find my strength
|
As I fell down to my knees
|
And in my darkest hour
|
It was faith that set me free
|
|
But I have arrived (I have arrived)
|
I have arrived
|
I've been through hell and back
|
But I survived
|
Yeah and I'm stronger - I've conquered
|
Every fear that held me under
|
I'm seeing life through different eyes
|
And I have arrived
|
|
But I have arrived (I have arrived)
|
I have arrived
|
I've been through hell and back
|
But I survived
|
Yeah and I'm stronger - I've conquered
|
Every fear that held me under
|
I'm seeing life through different eyes
|
And I have arrived
|
