Lyrics:

I had something

It fell from me

Something strong

Like a pounding drum

Like ringing bells

When I was young

I had something

And it was gone



I had something

Made me walk all night

Made me run from home

Made me fight

I had something

Made me feel alone

Like an orphan

Waiting for a home



Every footstep that I take

Completes the circle my life makes

Every living thing has ties that bind

What I lost returns with love and time



I heard something

It called to me

And it told me

I was saved

Not by God

And not by words

Not by any living thing



It was the voice that I once knew

Of my daughter or my son

Not yet born

And not yet known

Another orphan waiting for a home



Every footstep that I take

Completes the circle my life makes

Every living thing has ties that bind

What I lost returns with love and time

Every living thing has ties that bind

What I lost returns with love and time
