Sometimes life can be a burden
Try to stay one step ahead
i feel the world upon my shoulder each time
standing out on the edge
my hopes have all deserted me
like they've washed away in the sand
and its hurting my pride
im trying to survive
but i no when i stand a chance
when you lay hands
oh yea
coz its the only thing i have that still makes sense
oh baby when im calling out
give me love and affection
keep tellin me
show me the way
oh if you see me fallin down
lift me up from the shadows
will you take me away to a better place
and when im in my darkest hour
by my side
Turn the tide
until the suffering fades
life is gettin me down
gettin me down
im close to defeat
come on lay your hands on me
see this road is gettin longer now
and im to far away from home
said i gota keep on movin on
but i cant do it on my own
baby keep my head above water
help me swim for my life
coz the game is gettin harder
the strain is gettin stronger
i can only face the fight
when you lay hands
oh yea
coz its the only thing i have that still makes sense
oh baby when im calling out
give me love and affection
keep tellin me
show me the way
oh if you see me fallin down
lift me up from the shadows
will you take me away to a better place
and when im in my darkest hour
by my side
Turn the tide
until the suffering fades
life is gettin me down
gettin me down
im close to defeat
come on lay your hands on me
Till im here again
we discovered my strenghts
whos been there through it all
oh oh
(lay your hands on me)
oh baby when im calling out
give me love and affection
keep tellin me
show me the way
oh if you see me fallin down
life me up from the shadows
will you take me away to a better place
and when im in my darkest hour
by my side
Turn the tide
until the suffering fades
life is gettin me down
gettin me down
im close to defeat
come on lay your hands on me
