I took a drink of a long, dark night,
Then, drunk on doubt, I cursed the light,
There's a certain love that I seem to recall,
Here when I rise, here when I fall.
I had a dream but it fell apart,
A trusted friend who broke my heart,
But there's a certain love that I seem to recall,
Here when I rise, here when I fall.
Dressed in rags and riches, it dances over the fallen bridges,
Along the gutters and down the ditches, across valleys and mountain ridges,
Certain love.
I built a house, but the ground was sand,
The rains came down and it could not stand,
But there's a certain love when you've lost it all,
Here when we rise, here when we fall.
It's a certain love that I seem to recall,
Here when I rise,
Here when we rise,
Here when I rise, here when we fall.
