…Whilst you were fast asleep last night
And lost, within your dreams
I got up from your bedside
And I turned the nightlight out
I had to step into the darkness
At last I feel this sadness
Lifted from my shoulders
At last the weight is gone
It’s lifted from my shoulders
I felt the voices speaking
A man’s life is short
You will ask for nothing
You will learn to heal
All this fear at last is fading
At last I feel this sadness
Lifted from my shoulders
At last the weight is gone
It’s lifted from my shoulders
One minute
Or a lifetime
Is all it takes
Just feel it
One minute
Or a lifetime
You can feel it
Surge
Surge like a flood
