Across the mile I have travelled
Been through the distance, I shall believe
Tears have rolled down my cheeks
More than enough to last a lifetime
My eyes have dried on it's own will.
Friends have come and gone
Some stood beside me
Others have vanished indeed;
I bargained for the twist of fate
Almost fell down in despair.
Though strangers would see me
as if happy and free,
They will never know
The heartaches that bruised my senses;
The wounds were all hidden
Only the Lord knows the pain
That runs through my veins.
Where the key of broken dreams are kept?
Locked them up in one corner of my wounded heart;
When it will be free? I'll never know;
Though it pained me to believe
And my heart to weary to care
Faith is my armour, Hope shall be my guiding light.
After all, the pain endured
Will be a badge of courage
And the wounds would heal in time
For within the silence of my heart,
For whatever reason there may be;
One thing is certain...
While everything else have come to pass
And I still hold the power to believe
That I shall stand the test of time
Then it will be; time to heal,
And life will be what I want it to be.
