Standing cold and scared on top of the hill Then came the moment when I lost my will I prayed for mercy please don't take me away Give me the sunshine when I only see rain The past had a hold on me It can't be denied And the changes didn't come easily I've been lonely, I've been cheated, and I've been misunderstood I've been washed up, I've been put down, and told I'm no good But with you I belong Because you helped me be strong There's been a change in my life since you came along Now I don't mind working hard every day And I don't pay no mind to what people say 'Cause after all the pain I've been through I gave up everything to love only you See, all my life I've walked with my head bent in shame But since I found you, with you I've been made I've been lonely, I've been cheated, and I've been misunderstood I've been washed up, I've been put down, and I've been told I'm no good But with you I belong Because you helped me be strong
There's been a change in my life since you came along Now a man gets crazy when his life is all wrong And the heart gets a little weary when it doesn't belong And the road gets a little bit rocky but you've got to keep on And let the new light shining on you I've been lonely, and I've been cheated, and I've been misunderstood I've been washed up, and I've been put down, and I've been told I'm no good But with you I belong Because you helped me be strong There's been a change in my life since you came along Can you see it (well I can see your love around me) Can you hear it (I hear it in my heart) Can you feel it (well I can feel the power around me) Let the new light come shining on me I've been lonely, and I've been cheated, and I've been misunderstood I've been washed up, and I've been put down, and I've been told I'm no good But with you I belong Because you helped me be strong There's been a change in my life since you came along
