Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I was young
The feeling was there
It is still there
Unweavin' in me
As I recollect
Take me back to the stems of it
Through the eyes of my parents' tongue
How I listened to them
[Verse 2]
So made up my mind
I'll be around for a while
You can bet on your life
I'll be around for a while
[Verse 3]
Call out my name
When you call I'll be there
I'm always runnin, chasin' flames on a dare
Come back, gimme light
Come on darlin', shine
Call out my name
When you call I'll be there
[Verse 4]
So made up my mind
I'll be around for a while
You can bet on your life
I'll be around for a while
Time after time
I'll be around
This love tonight
It will be around for a while
[Verse 5]
Wishes here horses then beggars would ride
Let your inner mystic unravel tonight
Harder than diamonds
Cut up the sky
Runnin' like a river white hot with desire
[Verse 6]
So made up my mind
I'll be around for a while
You can bet on your life
I'll be around for a while
Time after time
I'll be around
This love tonight
It will be around for a while
[Verse 7]
Really need to say, oh
Are you sayin' things have changed my ways again
Really need to say
(Really need to say)
Girl, I've prayed, oh
Prayed I'd meet someone like you someday
That's all I need to say
(That's all I need, that's all I need)
[Verse 8]
So made up my mind
I'll be around for a while
You can bet on your life
I'll be around for a while
Time after time
I'll be around
This love tonight
It will be around for a while
