Clay Aiken - Falling

Silence
Long lost friend
You've come to me again
Night comes closing in
And the loneliness within

I'm older
Should be wiser
Still I never seem to learn
I'm closer than ever
To the edge

[Chorus]
And I'm falling
I'm falling
From the world I used to know
Been trying to hold on
To something for so long
Now this never-ending dream won't let go
I am falling...

Restless
I lie awake
And try to escape
Memories that never sleep
A taste of bitter sweet

I'll hold on to forever
Still I'm stuck in yesterday
I'm closer than ever
To the edge

[Chorus]
And I'm falling
I'm falling
From the world I used to know
Been trying to hold on
To something for so long
Now this never-ending dream won't let go
I am falling...

Come back and wake me up again
I can't face this world alone
Cause in my dream
I return and then
I'm falling, I'm falling

Clay Aiken - On My Way Here

I took my first step
On that black and white kitchen floor
I sometimes wonder if that house
Is even there, anymore
I had my first glimpse of love
When I was five
I watched two people split apart
But still the three of us survived

I've seen the best
I've seen the worst
I wouldn't change what I've been through
I've touched the sky
I've hit the wall
But I did what I had to
Ooooohhhh

On my way here
Where I am now
I've learned to fly
I have to want to leave the ground
I've fallen hard
But I've been loved
And in the end it all works out
My faith has conquered fear
On my way here.

Oh yeah yeaaah

My address has changed
Almost every year
I've found that standing still
Can quickly make a lifetime disappear
I'd rather try and fail
A thousand times denied
And this, whenever you feel pain
It lets you know that you're alive

I've been a fool
I've been afraid
Yeah, I've been loved
I've been lied to
I've been wrong
And I've been right
I stood up when I had to

Yeah Yeahhhh

On my way here
Where I am now
I've learned to fly
I have to want to leave the ground
I've fallen hard
But I've been loved
And in the end it all works out
My faith has conquered fear
On my way here.

No guarantees
I believed that I would find
An open door or a light
To lead me to the other side
I guess that is why

On my way here
Where I am now
I've learned to fly
I have to want to leave the ground
I've fallen hard
But I've been loved
And in the end it all works out
My faith has conquered fear
On my way here

Yeahhhh
Oooooohh
