When the lights go down, it’s closed

   Another side of me exposed

 

The fear wells up in me

   The side you never see

 

And then I see your face

   And know everything’s ok

 

It doesn’t matter what happens here

   As long as you are near

 

As long as you are by my side

   How we’ve laughed and how we’ve cried

 

Your silent smile says all it means

   And in that moment I believe

I believe

I believe

   I can do anything

 

When the day is said and done

   And I finally come undone

 

The doubt fills up in me

   The side that never lets me be

 

And then I see your face

   And know everything’s ok

 

It doesn’t matter what happens here

   As long as you are near

 

As long as you are by my side

   Oh how we’ve laughed and how we’ve cried

 

Your silent smile says all it means

   And in that moment I believe

I believe

I believe

   I can do anything

 

Before the show begins the doors unlock

   And I’m just staring down the clock

 

Trying to be all you want from me

   That questioning nearly cripples me

The side that never sets me free

 

And then I see your face

   And know everything’s ok

 

It doesn’t matter what happens here

   As long as you are near

 

As long as you are by my side

   Oh how we’ve laughed and how we’ve cried

 

Your silent smile says all it means

   And in that moment I believe

I believe

I believe

   I can do anything

 

The restless nights when I can’t sleep (I’m awake)

   All the worries upon me heaped

 

All the spirit from me drained

   From all the noise that fills my brain

 

And then I see your face

   And know everything’s ok

 

It doesn’t matter what happens here

   As long as you are near

 

As long as you are by my side

   Oh how we’ve laughed and how we’ve cried

 

Your silent smile says all it means

   And in that moment I believe

I believe

I believe

   I can do anything
