Once I was on my own

And falling

Once I was all alone

And calling

For someone, anyone today

To help me just a little on my way



And then I took a look around

And I saw the love that surrounded me

I knew that it was up to me

To cast off all the fears that bound me



You'll find you can't go on

Demanding

On ways to help you in

Defending

Your reason for being who you are

And asking for the lightest brightest star



I found that all I had to do

Was believe in the things that are true to me

And that'll happen naturally

And cast off all the fears that bound me



Yes, people let me say that

I took a look around

And I saw the love that surrounded me

I knew that it was up to me

Cast off all the fears that bound me

I had to cast off all the fears that bound me
