A Life Left Behind

I never knew someone was out there
 A long way from nowhere
 Who could open my eyes
 All this time while I'm sleeping
 The world changed around me
 Now I've never felt more alive
 I'm waking up
 From a life left behind
 To see what lies ahead
 I'm waking up
 Fate found the way
 To bring them together
 Once and forever
 And won't let them go
 Nothing I say
 Can keep her from leaving
 Her life has a meaning
 I lost her a long time ago
 I'm waking up
 From a life left behind
 To see what lies ahead
 I'm waking up
 I'm waking up
 Now that yesterday's gone
 Won't close my eyes again
 I'm waking up
 I plan to return well-disguised
 Make sure that I'm not recognized
 Tomorrow a new sun will rise
 And somehow I'll find you
 Nothing will stand in my way
 Soon I will see you again
 I'm waking up
 From a life left behind
 To see what lies ahead
 I'm waking up
 I'm waking up
 (I'm waking up)
 Now that yesterday's gone
 (Now that yesterday's gone)
 I won't close my eyes
 (I will never look back)
 I'm waking up
 
 you'll be her shadow as she moves, my son
 But she can never know of it
 She is alone and rebels are everywhere
 
 I'll keep her safe from all danger
 Won't let her out of my sight
 Did I fail to mention my honest intentions?
 This is the chance I deserve
 Heed my words
 Justice will be served.
