Sitting alone up in your empty room
In the stillness of the night
Where all the many dreams that used to carry you
Are no longer in sight
You put your feelings down in black and white
A saddisturbing reply
That you don t really want to face another night
So you re saying goodbye
But do you know that you re saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus:
Welli ve got to tell you there s another way
To be free to be complete
Butyou ve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat don t give in
And i m here to tell you there s another way
To consume a hungry heart
All the love you need is just a prayer away
Let it in to where you are
You ve made it to the edge of seventeen
Thinking now you ve reached the end of the line
But there s so much of life that you have never seen
Now you won t have the time
You say that you don t hear the music play
So you re ready to give up the dance
Now that nothing really matters anyway
Ohyou give up your chance
But do you know that you give up your chance
At a lifetime
Chorus:
Welli ve got to tell you there s another way
To be free--to be complete
But you ve got to make it thru another day
And deny your own defeat don t give in
And i m here to tell you there s another way
To consume a hungry heart
Jesus is waiting just a prayer away
Let him in to where you are
You put your feelings down in black and white
A saddisturbing reply
That you don t really want to face another night
So you re saying goodbye
But do you know that you re saying goodbye
To a lifetime
Chorus
