Respected Howard Jones

Here in the dark, the shadows, they haunt me
Here in the shade, oh the bright lights, they blind me
Yesterday is gone, time for moving on
Here's a brand new start, gonna base it on my heart
It's another day, I've got to find a better way
Won't you help me?
Failing that
If you have to go
It's all up to me, I know
I just wanna change my world
But from the inside
I just wanna live my life
And make this place, make this time
For all our lives to be
Respected
Here in the cold, light of day, this vision
Paints a different world, a world of the heart
And I'd like to live there
I've been on the run, from all the people I've become
I want to shed this skin, and start it all again
I want to draw a line, in the sand for one last time
Will you help me?
Failing that
If you have to go
It's all up to me I know
I just wanna change my world
But from the inside
I just wanna live my life
With some hope, and to do what's right
I just wanna change this world
And make this place, make this time
For all our lives to be
Respected
