no opportunity necessary, no experience needed

step out in the night

when you're lonely

listening for the sounds

that your ears don't hear

i know your cross is heavier

with every step

every step

but i know a man

and he'd walk miles for you

stop

you stay where you are

take a look at yourself

take a good look at yourself

can tell your momma

she'd only tell ya

that she told you so

the life you're leading

she won't believe

the riches of life

we all know

dawn turns to day

and the dawning

daytime

nighttime

and we still can't see

why must we wait

until the morning light

to wake up and be

wake up and be

wake up and be

wake up and be

wake up and be

step out in the night

when you're lonely

you stay where you are

take a look at yourself

take a good look at yourself
