Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
There's a poet in me that remembers And there's an honesty in every word There's a dancer that feels her own beat And there's a daughter who loves There's a sinner in my bones And there's a joker in my head There are secrets in my soul And there are sorries that I have never said But there's a time to dance Time to laugh Time to cry Time to go Time to grieve Time to come Oh, I still got time to cope Time to hope Time to play Time to grow But for now I gotta walk alone I gotta walk alone There's a tight rope that I've been walking There's a daisy in my hair There's a heartbreak that has taught me Of what is raging And there's only love and fear There's a sadness in my confessions There's a hyena howling at the moon And there's a gypsy in me that keeps on roaming And there's a an anger as I get closer to the truth But there's a time to dance Time to laugh Time to cry Time to go Time to grieve Time to come Oh, I still got time to cope Time to hope Time to play Time to grow But for now I gotta walk alone I gotta walk alone I gotta walk alone I've got to walk alone But for now I gotta walk alone Oh, I hear the thunder but I won't back down A soldier marches through the wrong side of town I'm gonna love you until I bleed And that's the story of me I gotta walk alone If they say time is everything There's a time to dance Time to laugh Time to cry Time to go Time to grieve Time to come Oh, I still got time to cope Time to hope Time to play Time to grow Now I gotta walk alone I've got to walk alone I've got to walk alone I gotta walk alone For now I gotta walk alone
