the way
Kenny Carter Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

In a perfect world one we've never known
We would never need to face the world alone
They can have their world we'll create our own
I may not be brave or strong or smart
But somewhere in my secret heart
I know love will find a way

Anywhere I go I'm home

If you are there beside me
Like dark turning into day
Somehow we'll come through
Now that I've found you
Love will find a way
I was so afraid

Now I realize love is never wrong
And so it never dies
There's a perfect world shining in your eyes
And if only they could feel it too
The happiness I feel with you
They'd know love will find a way
Anywhere we go we're home

If we are there together
Like dark turning into day
Somehow we'll come through
Now that I've found you

Love will find a way
I know love will find a way
