witness

Saw you captured and taken away
Know you're being held till some day
When you can break those bonds
And just walk out that door

I'm ready to say what needs to be said
Ready to tell what's in my heart and head
What I've seen with my own eyes
Know it's gonna change your life
Ready to be a witness,
though no court will understand
what links history to what's at hand
and how old promises can stay

Only a few will get this:
there really is a master scheme
that makes it all more than it seems
and lets nothing stay the same

Ready to be a witness to love
Saw you captured and taken away
Know you're being held till some day
When you can break those bonds
And just walk out that door.

I'm ready to say what needs to be said
Ready to tell what's in my heart and head
What I've seen with my own eyes
Know it's gonna change your life
