Ravine by Ace of Base
Artist: Ace of Base
Album: Bridge
Have you heard, have you heard?
About this girl who was ripped up by her roots
Have you heard, what she learned?
Like humility - you win when you lose
I have learned, i have learned
The most horrifying nights have an end
I was hurt, i was lost
In the dark i found a way to a friend
I am standing here in my ravine
Once again i see a piece of the sky
And my joy'll never be denied
'cause i was meant to be here -
The only place on earth
Where you are near, where you are near
Was a flower, was so frail
And i let the trees grow wild around me
Grew so high, hid the sky
Shaded everything i needed to see
Then one night, someone came
Took a knife and ripped me up by my roots
Tossed astray, far away
In the darkest night, i started to pray
I am standing...
Why do you, why do you ask?
Why i'm not blaming my god?
I'll tell you, i'll tell you what
He was the only one there
I am standing...
