A Soft Place To Land

I just need a soft place to land,
I just want someone to take me by the hand.
To hold me tight through the long, dark night,
Until the sun breaks through the gray.
Oh, won’t you take my hand
And help me find my way.

Yesterday’s gone, with its splendor and its pain,
The storm clouds have emptied, but I’m still in the rain.
Tomorrow is a hope that I have to build alone,
On a foundation of spirit and a heart made of stone.
So I’ll lift up this frown, shake the dust from my face,
I’ll pull myself out of this hollowed-out place.
I’ve survived the worst, and I’ve made it this far,
But even a warrior looks for a star.

I just need a soft place to land,
I just want someone to take me by the hand.
To hold me tight through the long, dark night,
Until the sun breaks through the gray.
Oh, won’t you take my hand,
And help me find my way,
Oh, won’t you take me by the hand.

I’m not looking for a savior, I’m not looking for a crutch,
I need a fire that burns with a lover’s touch.
I’ve got the strength to stand, I’ve got the power to fight,
I just want a hand to hold through the long, dark night.

I just need a soft place to land,
I just want someone to take me by the hand.
To hold me tight through the long, dark night,
Until the sun breaks through the gray.
Oh, won’t you take my hand,
And help me find my way,
Oh, won’t you take me by the hand.
