| Where I Stand ©2002 Linda Allen (I play Gc2) Woman standing in the rain on a cold October day In her hand there was a sign, It said, There Must Be A Better Way. By her side her child asked why Do you do the things you do? Once, you know, I did it for me, Now I'm doing it for you So you will know where I stand You will know who I am You will know where I stand If it all falls down Grey were the stones of the courthouse steps and grey was the autumn sky Grey were the faces of the passing people looking down as they walked by Black and white was the news that morning in a world about to die. Red as blood was the sign above, and the child again asked, "Why?" CHORUS Used to be I believed I could change some hearts with a hand-made sign Now I know I gotta keep on so that others won't change mine. Sometimes things have to fall apart to make way for something new Hold a sign, hold a vision 'cause I'm leavin' it up to you. CHORUS |
