"Kumbaya" lyrics

Rain falling on a lonely night
Just waiting on the sun to rise
Come morning and my tears are dry
Still praying it will be alright

I'm supposed to stay strong
Heaven knows, I try

They got me singing Kumbaya
But I don't know what it means
'Cause I've been to the moon and back
But I still can't find release
Now every time I close my eyes
It's so clear to see
Where you are is where I want to be
Where you are is where I want to be

Water flows to the lowest place
I'm holding on till I see your face
No colours, only shades of grey
My heart's calling for a warm embrace

I'm supposed to stay strong
Heaven knows, I try

They got me singing Kumbaya
But I don't know what it means
'Cause I've been to the moon and back
But I still can't find release
Now every time I close my eyes
It's so clear to see
Where you are is where I want to be
Where you are is where I want to be

Whatever happens, I
Want you to promise
You'll hold me close and don't let go, no, no
Whatever happens, I
Want you to promise
You'll hold me close and don't let go

They got me singing Kumbaya
But I don't know what it means
'Cause I've been to the moon and back
But I still can't find release
Now every time I close my eyes
It's so clear to see
Where you are is where I want to be
Where you are is where I want to be
Where you are is where I want to be
