You were a young girl, trying to get far Trying to show the world you who really are But they hate on you, and they prey on you And you never knew you could feel so blue So you wished it all away, dreamed a better place To dream by yourself so you could feel salvation Oh, oh, oh, don't fear the cold I don't know if it's yes or no from me But all you do is hold me back Standing at the water's edge, dreaming of a better place I feel the air again, I feel the air again You were a young boy, born in the wrong place Nothing to your name but the smile on your face And they tell you to stay the same But you turn it all around, started from the ground Take the next step, find a better place And heal, heal, heal, heal yourself I don't know if it's yes or no from me But all you do is hold me back Standing at the water's edge, dreaming of a better place I'll take the leap, I'll take the leap of faith Standing at the water's edge, dreaming of a better place Look into yourself and ease the pain Standing at the water's edge, dreaming of a better day I'll take the leap, I'll take the leap of faith
