I Am Not Leaving Now

I spent my life stumbling down this road that I must travel
And I spent my time chasing dreams that never did unravel
I've seen the light in the darkness
And I've seen the clouds roll away

CHORUS
I am not leaving now
Faced the prairie darkness, seen the cold wind howl
I cannot take my bow
'til I've stated the reason for the hope I found
I am not leaving now

I run this race with weary feet
And a heart that's newly branded
And I set my face
To the east and so far I'm still standin'
Though I'm afraid of the silence
(Well) I am not running away

CHORUS

(Well) I believe there is a prize awaitin'
Those who will finish strong
I could stand around here debating
Or take my cross and carry on for I

I spent my life stumbling down this road that I must travel
I spent my time chasing dream that never did unravel
Though I'm afraid of the silence
I am not running away

CHORUS
