I made my way through time and space without a map.
I just assumed it all someday would fall into my lap.
I thought each mistake was a lesson learned, no matter what the cost.
I guess I took a few wrong turns to get this lost.

Many times I thought I'd found somebody just as lost as me.
I'd say, "We could get out of this mess together baby, how would that be?"
And he'd reach for me and say, "Let's go this way - I think I see a light."
But every hand I took led me deeper into the pitch black night.

This valley of shadows is not my home.
It's unbelievable how the time has flown.
I am weary and I am spent, but I am no longer blind;
No longer fumbling in the dark for something I may never find.

Shine your light on me, open my eyes up wide!
I know I'm not used to the world outside...
But there are things that i want to see, and a person i want to be.
I will make myself new, I will pull us both through
I will mold myself to you, so perfectly.

Find my hand in this darkness and i'll lead you toward the light of day.
I am no longer lost and now i'm sure i know the way.
I was just too afraid to say, "I don't want to go out there alone."
Nobody else could find me - I was somewhere only you could've known.

And I've been waiting here all along for you to bring me home.
