Inquisitive Indecision (Answer Me - Along the Way)

How do I explain it?
I don’t know.
Can’t even name it, for you now…

Tell me how -

What does it take,
To really shake me from
My own suspicions here?

Can I see clear?

What should I do,
To make myself face all the truth
Of all my fears?

Oh, tell me dear…

When the rain keeps, pouring out this feeling.
And the days keep, going on and stealing
Mine from me.

What will it be… for you then?

How will it end?

Will the dark clouds cover my favorite song?
Will the light still shine when the morning’s gone?
Will you laugh with me, or up and walk away?

Will this lifetime break through the dead of night?
Will I always feel that I’ll be alright?
And will I find faith, and the strength to fight,
Enough?

When I ask you, could you tell me,
Here today?

Will you answer me again,
Along the way?

Why must it take,
All of my breath to climb
This mountain in my mind?

Won’t it be kind?

Why should I stay?
Still giving reasons for believing.
I could die.

Before I find…

Where the rain keeps, pouring out this feeling.
And the days keep, going on and stealing
Mine from me.

What could it be? Tell me then.

Is this the end?

Will the dark clouds cover my favorite song?
Will the light still shine when the morning’s gone?
Will you laugh with me, or up and walk away?

Will this lifetime break through the dead of night?
Will I always feel that I’ll be alright?
And will I find faith, and the strength to fight,
Enough?

When I ask you, could you tell me,
Here today?

Will you answer me again,
Along the way?

Where do I go?
Look, see the road will
Get so twisted down the line.

Don’t leave me crying…

Where will you be?
Oh, when I need ya,
Can you stand right next to me?

And help me, please…

When the rain keeps, pouring out this feeling.
And the days keep, going on and stealing
Mine from me.

Let me believe, in you then.

Tell me again. (Oh, once again!)

Will the dark clouds cover my favorite song?
Will the light still shine when the morning’s gone?
Will you laugh with me, or up and walk away?

Will this lifetime break through the dead of night?
Will I always feel that I’ll be alright?
And will I find faith, and the strength to fight,
Enough?

When I ask you, could you tell me,
Here today?

Will you answer me again,
Along the way?

Who do I need to be?
And tell me…
What do you need from me?

Who is this in my mind?
And who is…
Right here before my eyes?

Who do you see when I don’t shine?

When the rain keeps, pouring out this feeling.
And the days keep, going on and stealing
Mine from me.

What will it be… for you then?

How will it end?

Will the dark clouds cover my favorite song?
Will the light still shine when the morning’s gone?
Will you laugh with me, or up and walk away?

Will this lifetime break through the dead of night?
Will I always feel that I’ll be alright?
And will I find faith, and the strength to fight,
Enough?

When I ask you, could you tell me,
Here today?

Will you answer me again,
Along the way?

How do I explain it?
I don’t know.
Can’t even name it, for you now…

Tell me how -

Cuz the words may have changed,
But it sounds just the same,
To me…
