TIME TICKS AWAY

WHEN I'M WITH YOU
TIME TICKS AWAY

Lyrics

TIME TICKS AWAY

I have felt tomorrow
Slowly let me go
Broken in the darkness
All alone

And I have fought the sorrow
So deep, like mothers for lost sons
Knowing I will never, never
Get home

But time ticks away
And now I can say
That all of those battles
Brought the best out of me

Yeah, time ticks away
And now that I look backwards
And gaze upon the path that is me
I know that my battles
Show me all I can be

Well I have watched the mirror
Impatient for some change
Just waiting for my saviour
To arrive

Yes, I have chased salvation
So deep, running from my pain
Now I find my saviours
Inside

Yes time ticks away
And now I can say
That all of those battles
Brought the best out of me

Yeah, time ticks away
And now that I look backwards
And gaze upon the path that is me
I know that my battles
Show me all I can be
Yeah, all of my battles
Show me all I can be
All of those battles
Brought the best out of me
