You were born into a strange world
Like a candle, you were meant to share the fire
I don't know where we come from, and I don't know where we go
But my arms were made to hold you, so I will never let you go

'Cause you were born
To change this life
You were born
To chase the light
'Cause you were born

Love your mother, yeah she's s good one
She'll build you armor; keep you warm as a hen
The stars may fall and the rains may pour
But I will love you evermore

'Cause you were born
To make this right
'Cause you were born
To chase the light
'Cause you were born

Oh my precious, oh my love, when they come to take me
I will hold you from above
I don't know why we're here, and I don't know how
But I'm here with you now, I am here with you now

'Cause you were born
To make this right
'Cause you were born
To change this life
'Cause you were born
To chase the light
'Cause you were born
