I've  been  living  with  a  shadow  overhead , 
I've  been  sleeping  with 
a  cloud  above  my  bed , 
I've  been  lonely  for  so  long , 
Trapped  in  the  past , 
I  just  can't  seem  to  move  on ! 
I've  been  hiding  all  my 
hopes  and  dreams  away , 
Just  in  case  I  ever 
need  'em  again  someday , 
I've  been  setting  aside  time , 
To  clear  a  little  space  in 
the  corners  of  my  mind ! 
All  I  wanna  do  is  find 
a  way  back  into  love. 
I  can't  make  it  through 
without  a  way  back  into  love. 
Ooo  hooow 
I've  been  watching  but  the 
stars  refuse  to  shine , 
I've  been  searching  but  I 
just  don't  see  the  signs , 
I  know  that  it's  out  there , 
There's  gotta  be  something 
for  my  soul  somewhere ! 
I've  been  looking  for 
someone  to  shed  some  light , 
Not  somebody  just  to  get 
me  through  the  night , 
I  could  use  some  direction , 
And  I'm  open  to  your  suggestions. 
All  I  wanna  do  is  find 
a  way  back  into  love. 
I  can't  make  it  through 
without  a  way  back  into  love. 
And  if  I  open  my  heart  again , 
I  guess  I'm  hoping  you'll 
be  there  for  me  in  the  end ! 
There  are  moments  when  I 
don't  know  if  it's  real 
Or  if  anybody  feels  the  way  I  feel 
I  need  inspiration 
Not  just  another  negotiation 
All  I  wanna  do  is  find 
a  way  back  into  love , 
I  can't  make  it  through 
without  a  way  back  into  love , 
And  if  I  open  my  heart  to  you , 
I'm  hoping  you'll  show  me  what  to  do , 
And  if  you  help  me  to  start  again , 
You  know  that  I'll  be 
there  for  you  in  the  end !
