    Lyrics:
    We're miles apart
    But safe from dreams
    You're running from
    Beyond the dawn
    We'll always need
    One of their own
    To lead
    Shine your light over me
    All of my fears are gone
    All of my fears are gone, baby, gone, gone
    And it don't bother me
    And it don't bother me, don't bother me, no
    If it's not meant to be
    Too far to run
    Fall on your knees
    To find a love
    You're light to me
    My only sun
    You'll always shine
    For me
    Shine your light over me
    All of my fears are gone
    All of my fears are gone, baby, gone, gone
    And it don't bother me
    It don't bother me, don't bother me, no
    If it's not meant to be
    I had to lose to understand
    Strung out from all this
    Pour out a thousand tears
    I never knew a kinder man
    A mile apart, leave and be free
