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.
