You're Not the Only One
Embrace the Light: Finding Strength in Loneliness
Lyrics
I see you now in the dead of night
I perceive you at a late hour of the night
The shadows closing in
The darkness is encroaching
You lie and wait for the morning light
You deceive yourself and wait for the morning light
You'll just survive till then
You'll merely endure until then
Loneliness only means you harm
Being alone only brings you harm
So try to raise a smile
Attempt to put on a smile
Don't you know that your open arms
Realize that your welcoming embrace
Can bridge a thousand miles?
Can span a great distance
When there's no end to it all
When there seems to be no conclusion to everything
Try to surrender
Try to give up and surrender
Let yourself fall and just
Allow yourself to fall and simply
Try to remember
Try to recall
You're not the only one who feels pain
You are not the only one experiencing pain
Open your heart and live again
Open your heart and live anew
The rule you depend upon
The principle you rely on
From this day on you're not the only one
From this day forward, you are not alone
Throw back the shutters and unlock the spell
Open the window coverings and break the enchantment
Let sunshine light your face
Let sunlight illuminate your countenance
The growing fears that you know so well
The familiar fears that you recognize so well
Will vanish into space
Will disappear into the vastness of space
You're not the only one who needs faith
You are not the only one who requires faith
Climbing the face of the unknown
Climbing the facade of the unknown
To tell you you're not alone
To inform you that you are not alone
And, above all else you're not the only one
And, above all, you are not the only one
Free yourself
Liberate yourself
Take a good look around
Take a careful look around
There's a lot of love to be found
There is a wealth of love to discover
Love will not let you down
Love will not disappoint you
