PRIDE

Oooh, I shall live eternally
Live eternally with you

There's someone knockin' at the door
There's someone knockin' at the door
There's someone knockin' at the door

There's someone knockin' at the door
There's someone knockin' at the door
There's someone knockin' at the door

There's someone knockin' at the door
I think it's my true mother
And she has a gift for me
It's been such a long time
Since I've seen her face
It's my mother and she has a gift for me
If it's a little box of pride
I shall open it wide
And a thousand singing voices
Shall be calling out your name
Yes, I know they will be calling out your name

Sometime ago, I had a lot to learn
When I was afraid, I knew not where to turn
So I armed myself, and I went in search of a way
But my sword and my arrows only drove it away

So now I lay my shield aside
And I shall rest naked against the tide
I am meaningless
This life is suicide
If I cannot bathe in your wonderful pride
Your wonderful pride
Love

Your wonderful pride

The tears of joy are falling down on me
And I can hardly wait
Till the day that I'm allowed to see
Allowed to see the light
And I will fight for the right
When every diamond
And every ounce of gold
On every finger of the richest man
Never shined so bright
As this miraculous love

It's your wonderful pride
That keeps my dreams alive
And by your every wish I will abide
'Cause now I have something to live for
And it's right here knockin' at my door
And I feel stronger every day
'Cause every day you give a little more
And I know if the world turned its back on me
I can bathe in your wonderful pride
Your wonderful pride

Your wonderful pride

There's someone knockin' at the door
When I was afraid
I knew not where to turn
Oh when I was afraid
I had a lot to learn
There's nothin' to fear
'Cause nothin' can hide from your pride

Now I lay my shield aside
And I shall rest naked against the tide
I am meaningless
This life is suicide
If I cannot throw myself on the alter
And bathe in your wonderful pride

Oh I shall live eternally
Live eternally with love
