No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed
Step out in the night
When you're lonely
Listening for the sounds
That your ears don't hear
I know your cross is heavier
With every step
Every step
But I know a man
And he'd walk miles for you
Stop, you stay where you are
Take a look at yourself
Take a good look at yourself
Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
Dawn turns to day
And the dawning
Daytime, nighttime
And we still can't see
Why must we wait until the morning light
To wake up and be
Wake up and be
Wake up and be
Wake up and be
Wake up and be
Step out in the night
When you're lonely
Listen for the sounds
That your ears don't hear
I know your cross is heavier
With every step
Every step
But I know a man
Who'd walk miles for you
Stop, you stay where you are
Take a look at yourself
Take a good look at yourself
Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
When you're lonely
Listening for the sounds
That your ears don't hear
I know your cross is heavier
With every step
Every step
But I know a man
And he'd walk miles for you
Stop, you stay where you are
Take a look at yourself
Take a good look at yourself
Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
Dawn turns to day
And the dawning
Daytime, nighttime
And we still can't see
Why must we wait until the morning light
To wake up and be
Wake up and be
Wake up and be
Wake up and be
Wake up and be
Step out in the night
When you're lonely
Listen for the sounds
That your ears don't hear
I know your cross is heavier
With every step
Every step
But I know a man
Who'd walk miles for you
Stop, you stay where you are
Take a look at yourself
Take a good look at yourself
Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
Can tell your momma
She'd only tell ya
That she told you so
The life you're leading
She won't believe
The riches of life
We all know
