 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

See my hand is moving
Touching all that's real
And once it stroke the love's body
Now it claws the past

The scent of a flower,
The colors of the morning,
Friends to believe in,
Tears soon forgotten,
See how the rain drives away, another day

If a leaf has fallen
Does the tree lie broken?
And if we draw some water
Does the well run dry?

The sigh of a mother,
The screaming of lovers,
Like two angry tigers,
They tear at each other
See how for him lifetime's fears disappear

Once a Jesus suffered,
Heaven could not see him.
And now my ship is sinking,
The captain stands alone.

A pawn on the chessboard,
A false move by God will now destroy me,
But wait, on the horizon,
A new dawn seems to be rising,
Never to recall this passerby, born to die.

    I have listened closely at reduced speed and believe there are two incorrect lyrics for this song that have found their way to every site. They are: 1) At the end of the second chorus, "See how for him..."; I believe this should be "See how for THEM...". 2) The first line of Verse 3 "Once a Jesus suffered" should be "I once heard Jesus suffered". Both of these revisions not only can be heard upon close study, but also make more sense in context. LyricsAZ said they submitted my edit to the copyright owner, so perhaps my effort was for naught. Still, I plan to cite my own version if quoting from this track in the future.
