Artist: Mariah Carey
[Am]I lay awake sometimes
[Em]Scared to close my eyes
[G]And I wonder where I left myself
[F]And lost the will to fight
[Am]And the night melts into morning
[Em]Still it's cold beneath the sun
[G]'Cause the fire in me is languishing
[F]And I'm too frozen to run
[Dm]And every once in a [G]while
There's a distant glimmer of [C]hope
I [F]find somewhere deep in[Dm]side
Someone strong still res[G]ides
And I know she's gonna be [C]fine in t[F]ime
'Cause, you s[D]ee
I've got a [C]lot to dream
There's [F]more than this for [E]me
An angel lands with broken wings
He warms me with his eyes
And the ice that's sheathed around my heart
Unravels as he smiles
See I grew up locked in sorrow
So I learn to block the pain
But I won't give up tomorrow
'Cause I've come to life again
And every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know I'm gonna be fine, that's right
'Cause, for real
I've got a right to dream
There's more than this for me
But I keep goin' 'cause every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know she's gonna be fine in time
'Cause, you see
I've got a right to dream
There's more than this for me
[Em]Scared to close my eyes
[G]And I wonder where I left myself
[F]And lost the will to fight
[Am]And the night melts into morning
[Em]Still it's cold beneath the sun
[G]'Cause the fire in me is languishing
[F]And I'm too frozen to run
[Dm]And every once in a [G]while
There's a distant glimmer of [C]hope
I [F]find somewhere deep in[Dm]side
Someone strong still res[G]ides
And I know she's gonna be [C]fine in t[F]ime
'Cause, you s[D]ee
I've got a [C]lot to dream
There's [F]more than this for [E]me
An angel lands with broken wings
He warms me with his eyes
And the ice that's sheathed around my heart
Unravels as he smiles
See I grew up locked in sorrow
So I learn to block the pain
But I won't give up tomorrow
'Cause I've come to life again
And every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know I'm gonna be fine, that's right
'Cause, for real
I've got a right to dream
There's more than this for me
But I keep goin' 'cause every once in a while
There's a distant glimmer of hope
I find somewhere deep inside
Someone strong still resides
And I know she's gonna be fine in time
'Cause, you see
I've got a right to dream
There's more than this for me
