When all the salt is taken from the sea
I stand dethroned
I'm naked and I bleed
But when your finger points so savagely
Is anybody there to believe in me?
To hear my plea and take care of me?

How can I go on
From day to day
Who can make me strong
In every way
Where can I be safe
Where can I belong
In this great big world of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams that we shared
They're lost and they're no way to be found
How can I go on?

Sometimes I start to tremble in the dark
I cannot see
When people frighten me
I try to hide myself so far from the crowd
Is anybody there to comfort me
(precious love, hear my plea yeah)
Lord... take care of me

How can I go on
From day to day
Who can make me strong
In every way
Where can I be safe
Where can I belong
In this great big world of sadness
How can I forget
Those beautiful dreams that we shared
They're lost and they're nowhere to be found

How can I go on?
