7 YEARS

The cold came quickly
As my world fell apart
I questioned all that I held
Deep within my heart
I thought this dark night
Of the soul would never end
And sleep would be
My only friend
But it took . . .

Chorus ~
7 years to open up my eyes, and
7 years to reveal all that I hide, oh
7 years to find where I belong, still
7 years have made me strong

Now I know where I'm going
Cause I know where I have been
I made it through
The lonesome wilderness within
My broken spirit finally
Found a way to mend
And then the sun
Came out again
But it took . . .

~Chorus ~

I held on even though it hurt
At times it felt like it would last forever
And like a soldier I marched on
Even when all hope was gone

(Instrumental)

My broken spirit finally
Found a way to mend
Just when I thought
I'd reached the end
But it took . . .

~Chorus~
