digging deep inside my mind looking for a clearer view
think I've found the answer now and every one lad back to you
and I believe with time and chance that everything was meant to be
seems that like is on my side
I know that someone's watching me

a brand new thought occurred to me today
it's funny how the truth can light your way
and every woman, every man, it's time for you to understand
can't you see that there's a bigger plan

I'm protected by your love for me
you've given me the strength to be protected
when I'm out there n my own
I'm protected every night and day
protected since you came my way
when you're protected you can't be alone

and I have wandered every land, smiled and shook a stranger's
hand
you told me I should never be frightened by the truth you see
satisfied I freed my soul. I've seen my mission turn to gold
when troubles they out-number you your heart will know just what
to do
