Lyrics
Verse 1:
I was lost, I was tired
Running in circles, losing myself
In everybody else
I was lost, I was lonely
I hit the wall, but there was no door
And I didn’t know what to do
Chorus:
You threw me a rope, you pulled me up
You showed me a new way to go
You threw me some hope and you pulled me in
You showed me there was life to live, on the other side
Verse 2:
I have learnt so much from you;
How to be patient, how to be kind
How to accept myself
Searching for my life again
Finding my spirit, finding my voice
New adventures everyday
Chorus:
You threw me a rope, you pulled me up
You showed me a new way to go
You threw me some hope and you pulled me in
You showed me there was life to live, on the other side
You showed me there was life to live, on the other side
Bridge:
When I stumble as the wall re-builds
I know you’re there to pick me off the floor
When I fall upon my broken dreams
You’re there to show a future I adore
When I’m walking into the unknown
I know your hand will be there by my side
Never fading, never waning, always true
With open arms and a welcoming heart
Chorus:
You threw me a rope, you pulled me up
You showed me a new way to go
You threw me some hope and you pulled me in
You showed me there was life to live, on the other side
You showed me there was life to live, on the other side
End:
Loving me for all my crazy
You and me wild and free as we journey to the sea
