I'm blind-folded on this roller coaster they call life.
Keep trying to make it through the next turn
knuckles white and holdin' tight.
So here I go, takin' a curve,
but I know that I'm never alone.
I think of you, I know you'd never let me go.

[chorus]
I feel connected, protected.
It's like you're sitting right with me all the time
You hear, you're near me
And everything else's gonna be alright
cause nothin' can break this, nothin' can break this
nothin' can break this tie
Connected..
Connected inside.

It's not an accident, the time we spent apart.
But now we're so close, I can always find you right here in my heart.
You've given me somethin' I need, and I don't ever want it to end.
Because of you, I know I've found my strength again.

[ repeat chorus ]

Everytime that I breathe, I can feel the energy.
Preachin' out, flowin' through, you to me and me to you.
Find your dream, walk or stand, you are everywhere I am.
Seperate souls, you to find, touching at the speed of light.

I feel connected, protected,
it's like you're sitting right with me all the time.
You hear me, you're near me,
and everything else's gonna be alright.
Connected, protected, now you're in my mind, now I'm doin' fine.
You hear me, you're near me, and everything else's gonna be alright.
'Cause nothin' can break this, nothin' can break this
nothin' can break this tie.
Connected...connected inside.
