No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed - 2003 Remaster

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't tell your mama
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 sound 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't tell your mama
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't tell your mama
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
