Lyrics for Song: Can't Take That Away
Lyrics for Album: Rainbow
They can say
anything they want to say
try to bring me down
But I will not allow
anyone to succeed
hanging clouds over me
And they can try
Hard to make me feel that I
Don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter in what I believe
or loose faith in my dreams
Cause there's
Theres a light in me
That shines brightly.
They can try,
but they can't take that away from me.
Oh, they
They can do, anything they want, to you.
If you let them in.
But they won't ever win,
if you cling to your pride and just push them aside.
See I, I have learned
There's an inner peace I own.
Something in my soul,
that they cannot possess.
So I won't be afraid,
and the darkness will fade.
Cause there's,
theres a light in me.
That shines, brightly. yes
They can try, but they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take this,
precious love I'll always have inside me.
Certainly the lord will guide me,
where I need to go.
Oh, oh, they can say.
Anything they want to say.
Try to bring me down.
But I won't face the ground,
I will rise steadily,
sailing out of their reach.
Oh lord, they do try.
Hard to make me feel, that I.
Don't matter at all.
But I refuse to falter,
in what I believe or loose faith in my dreams.
Cause there's, theres a light in me.
That shines, brightly.....yes
They can try, but they can't take that away from me.
From me....
