Turning around I see someone

That I thought I used to know

You wide eyed in the crowd

How does it feel to see the world

And not turn cold

I wanna hold you

And protect you from the change

Though I know it's gonna happen anyway

Take this veil, I'll dry your eyes

In a world like ours you're nobody's child

I'm dependin' on you to teach me

All the things I forgot I ever knew

Baby, you can lean on me

I may lean a little too

Whatever gets us through

And I feel a mountain movin' deep within

At the end of the revival we begin

Take this veil, it'll dry your eyes

In a world like ours, our nobody's child

And I feel a mountain movin' deep within

At the end of the revival we begin

Take this veil, dry these eyes

You see me prayin', but I'm nobody's child
