Here I Stand Lyrics by Dokken

Shadowlife

0

I will rise up - over this
'till I come to a higher place
I will find strength - let go
Of all the ties to my disgrace

I'm no more - and no less
Than anyone else
Looking for a new horizon
I can find in myself

(It's all right) the shadow's gone
(shine your light) with the risin' sun
(It's all right) take me as I am
(yeah yeah yeah) cuz here I stand

No hesitation - holdin' back
I'll take each step one by one
But I might fall - I could stray
If I loose my eye's today

I'm only one in a crowd
I'm just one voice on the line
Looking for a new horizon
Another place another time

(It's all right) the shadow's gone
(shine your light) with the risin' sun
(It's all right) take me as I am
(yeah yeah yeah) cuz here I stand

CODA: In our hands a light shines
We still wonder
Change our world into sand
We will hunger
Like a child -fears the night-
Draws near its mother
Like a son -fears no one-
Will cast our shadow forever
'cause here I stand
