Someone's Watching Over Me
When my back's against the wall
And I feel like there's just no place to go
When I've lost my love, my will, my pride,
My everything, except a heart full of woe;
When my wings have been brutally clipped
When a knife is stabbing my heart
When the world turns its love against me,
Setting me apart;
When I'm backed into a cold corner
When I'm standing in the dark, I'll still believe
That tomorrow will come soon someday
Because someone's watching over me.
When my strength is nothing but an empty well
When my heart is full of jealousy
When the missing piece of the puzzle
Spells out nothing but "empty;"
When I'm lower than low, I'll still have faith
When I'm standing in the dark, I'll still believe
Because it's written in the sky
Someone's watching over me.
