I was running out of cafe conversation I was weary of fashion parade And it seems like there's a whole lot of people From out of town 'round here these days And in the streets, the preachers say "if you wanna go to heaven, why don't you walk this way?"
All day I prayed for 5 o' clock I'm thinking maybe I should quit this job And as the lights turn on the corner, I see your face And I light up like a child
'Cause you are the one who makes me see You are my saving grace You make me want to make me want to become Become better
'Cause when you walked in, you truly changed my world When you take my hand, you make me strong And when i'm weary, I don't have to explain myself When i crawl the stairs, you let me rest
I never thought I'd ever see the sun again Bitterness was beating down my door Now I'm picking up the telephone, I read your name And I light up like a child
'Cause you are the one who makes me see You are my saving grace You make me want to make me want to become Become better
'Cause when you walked in, you truly changed my world When you take my hand, you make me strong And when you want me, I'll be there, you know I will Just take my hand and I'll make you strong
