They can take any name that I've made for myself They can take any pride I've got as well There are some things that I can't afford to lose I could be nobody as long as I'm someone to you Yeah I could keep chasing the rabbit out front But you know that's a race I don't care to run So I lay down any dreams of a vain success Oh I'd rather run to you instead So let's get face to face Look me straight in the eye I want these words I say To echo true inside I could hold the world in my hands I could let it slip right through I could be nobody as long as I'm someone to you If fortune is a siren that's singing my name If the song is so sweet that I can't turn away If the prodigal son had a lesson to learn Oh it's you are the home where I will return So let's get face to face Look me straight in the eye I want these words I say To echo true inside I could hold the world in my hands I could let it slip right through I could be nobody as long as I'm someone to you You are a rock sticking out of the sand That gets covered up when the high tide rolls in All else washes away but the stone never moves I could be nobody as long as I'm someone to you I could be nobody as long as I'm someone to you
