'Round and around and 'round we go,
Life is a Ferris Wheel,
I love the ups, I'll take the downs - it shows me what is real,
And then I hear you say you'll never go away, you gotta know that mean the world to me.
I used to have a double mind, if you could really see me,
And if I fell into a hole would you be there to free me?
But now, as I look back through happiness and pain, there's always been a sun behind the rain.
Oh, there you were,
Oh, there you are,
In photographs when I was young and days of my life yet to come,
I look at them and I can see the eyes of heaven watching over me.
Some days I feel all alone and altogether rotten,
Even wonder to myself "Could I have been forgotten?"
And then I hear you speak,
You love me when I'm weak as much as you could ever love me strong.
'Round and around and 'round we spin,
This world is going crazy,
I try to see the beauty there; sometimes my sight is hazy,
And then you show me why you had to come and die, and give the world a chance to understand.
Oh, there you were,
Oh, there you are,
In every word and every line of any song at any time,
I look at them and I can see the eyes of heaven watching over me.
Oh, there you were,
Oh, there you are,
With every breath I'll ever take and any step I'll ever make,
I look at them and I can see the eyes of heaven watching over me.
