Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Put all your angels on the edge Keep all the roses, I'm not dead I left a thorn under your bed I'm never gone Go tell the world I'm still around I didn't fly, I'm coming down You are the wind, the only sound Whisper to my heart when hope is torn apart And no one can save you I walk alone Every step I take, I walk alone My winter storm holding me awake It's never gone when I walk alone Go back to sleep forever more Far from your fools and lock the door They're all around and they'll make sure You don't have to see what I turned out to be No one can help you I walk alone Every step I take, I walk alone My winter storm holding me awake It's never gone when I walk alone Waiting up in heaven I was never far from you Spinning down I felt your every move I walk alone I walk alone Every step I take, I walk alone My winter storm holding me awake It's never gone, when I walk alone
