Lyrics

A flower grows For every drop of rain that falls It can be close Somewhere in the darkest nights For everyone who goes astray And someone will come to show the way I believe We're still be hurt There's someone in the great somewhere Hears every word (every time) In a year a newborn babe cry Or touch on the laugh on look at the sky Oh baby I know why, yes I know why REFRAIN: I - I - I Love me this way I believe in your faith (I believe) I know why I want to stay On the dock of the bay (I believe) I - I - I Heaven can't wait I believe in your nights (I believe) Take my hands, I want to stay On the dock of the bay (I believe) A flower grows For every drop of rain that falls It can be close Somewhere in the darkest nights For everyone who goes astray And someone will come to show the way I - I - I Love me this way I believe in your faith (I believe) I know why I want to stay On the dock of the bay (I believe) I - I - I Heaven can't wait I believe in your nights (I believe) Take my hands, I want to stay First of May I will fly (I believe) I - I - I Love me this way I believe in your faith (I believe) I know why I want to stay On the dock of the bay (I believe) I - I - I Heaven can't wait I believe in your nights (I believe) Take my hands, I want to stay
