Lyrics
Comfort's Sigh
Words and Music by Sara Hickman (le petit bonheur/bmi)
I must have faith...in my own journey
I must believe that I belong
Though I am weary...and feel forgotten
I'll find the strength in my own song
I see the sorrow of my yesterday...I read tomorrow's front page news
I hear a heartbeat long ago and bittersweet...it's a glass slipper I'll never lose
I must have faith in my own journey
I must believe that I belong
Though I am weary...and feel forgotten
I'll find the strength in my own song
There is a shadow over your shoulder ....
Oh, I can witness...for I've had one, too...
The lonely anguish...the flicker of anger
So many questions...of what to do
I must have faith in my own journey...I must believe that I belong
Though I am weary...and feel forgotten...I'll find the strength in my own song
SOLO
Many the stranger...standing at the window
Watching the street...eyes in the rain
Behind this curtain I've watched my dreams die
Waiting for a lover's hand...and comfort's sigh
I must have faith in my own journey
I must believe that I belong
Though I am weary and feel forgotten
I'll find the strength in my own song
I'll find the strength to carry on....
