Dokken - Here I Stand lyrics

I will rise up - over this

'till I come to a higher place

I will find strength - let go

of all the ties to my disgrace

I'm no more - and no less

than anyone else

looking for a new horizon

I can find in myself

CHORUS

(It's all right) the shadow's gone

(shine your light) with the risin' sun

(It's all right) take me as I am

(yeah yeah yeah) cuz here I stand

No hesitation - holdin' back

I'll take each step one by one

but I might fall - I could stray

If I loose my eye's today

I'm only one in a crowd

I'm just one voice on the line

looking for a new horizon

another place another time

CHORUS

(It's all right) the shadow's gone

(shine your light) with the risin' sun

(It's all right) take me as I am

(yeah yeah yeah) cuz here I stand

CODA: In our hands a light shines

we still wonder

change our world into sand

we will hunger

like a child -fears the night-

draws near its mother

like a son -fears no one-

will cast our shadow forever

'cause here I stand
