Ravine
Have you heard, have you heard?About this girl who was ripped up by her rootsHave you heard, what she learned?Like humility - you win when you lose
I have learned, I have learnedThe most horrifying nights have an endI was hurt, I was lostIn the dark I found a way to a friend
I am standing here in my ravineOnce again I see a piece of the skyAnd my joy'll never be denied'Cause I was meant to be here -The only place on earthWhere you are near, where you are near
Was a flower, was so frailAnd I let the trees grow wild around meGrew so high, hid the skyShaded everything I needed to see
Then one night, someone cameTook a knife and ripped me up by my rootsTossed astray, far awayIn the darkest night, I started to pray
I am standing...
Why do you, why do you ask?Why I'm not blaming my God?I'll tell you, I'll tell you whatHe was the only one there
I am standing...
