With all the noise around,
Please tell me how I'm supposed to think
Much less try to grow
All this roar surrounds me,
Choking on all I know
Is this how it's supposed to go?
All I say:
Oh, don't you run away,
As cars, they pass you by
Don't you run and hide
If we are rooted deep,
We could be like trees
And stay planted in the stream
We will grow
I can feel my heart start to beat
You are doing something to me
So how can I begin to explain,
When I've never felt this way,
I will stay
I will stay
So maybe I am not supposed to be planted
Amongst these flashing lights
Oh, if I can stay rooted,
I know that I would be just fine
So I say:
Oh, don't you run away,
As cars, they pass you by
Don't you run and hide
If we are rooted deep,
We could be like trees
And still be planted in the stream
We will grow
I can feel my heart start to beat
You are doing something to me
So how can I begin to explain,
When I've never felt this way,
I stay, through pain or gain,
Sun or rain, come what may
Through doubts and fears,
Through all the years,
Love will sustain,
Through everything
That we have faced or have yet to see,
You can count on me,
Yes, you can count on me,
'Cause I will grow
I can feel my heart start to beat
You are doing
Something so amazing to me
So how can I begin to explain,
When I've never felt this way,
I will grow
I can feel my heart start to beat
You are doing something to me
So how can I begin to explain,
When I've never felt this way,
I will stay
I will stay
