with my eyes shut, I could see
endless black for what seemed eternity
the song carried me away
as the night turned slowly to day

if only you knew how much that moment meant
if only you had seen my heart before it was broken and bent
the song carried me away
as night turned slowly to day

often I sit with eyes closed tight, wondering now
time passes, and the sun's rays do bow
the song carried me away,
as night turned slowly to day

healing comes in time, this is true
skies can go from darkest black to a brighter hue
the song carried me away,
as night turned slowly to day

the song that said so much
the song that let me be
the song that set me free

with my eyes shut I could see
brighter days for what seemed eternity
