Word on a wing

In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
I don´t need another change
Still you forced away
into my scheme of things
You say we´re growing,
growing heart and soul
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
Oh sweet name, I call you again
You´re born once again for me
Just because I believe don´t mean I don´t think as well
Don´t have to question everything
in heaven or hell
[CHORUS]
Lord, I kneel and offer you
my word on a wing
And I´m trying hard to fit
among your scheme of things
It´s safer than a strange land
But I still care for myself
And I don´t stand in my own light
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
My prayer flies
like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in
with your scheme of things?
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
Just as long as I can see, I´ll never stop this vision flowing
I look twice and you´re still flowing
Just as long as I can walk
I´ll walk beside you, I´m alive in you
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
And I´m ready to shape the scheme of things
Ooh, ready to shape
the scheme of things [5 times]
[CHORUS]
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
I don´t need another change
Still you forced away
into my scheme of things
You say we´re growing,
growing heart and soul
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
Oh sweet name, I call you again
You´re born once again for me
Just because I believe don´t mean I don´t think as well
Don´t have to question everything
in heaven or hell
[CHORUS]
Lord, I kneel and offer you
my word on a wing
And I´m trying hard to fit
among your scheme of things
It´s safer than a strange land
But I still care for myself
And I don´t stand in my own light
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
My prayer flies
like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in
with your scheme of things?
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
Just as long as I can see, I´ll never stop this vision flowing
I look twice and you´re still flowing
Just as long as I can walk
I´ll walk beside you, I´m alive in you
Sweet name, you´re born once again for me
And I´m ready to shape the scheme of things
Ooh, ready to shape
the scheme of things [5 times]
[CHORUS]
