Stumbling like a beast of burden
Bowed beneath a heavy load
The time is short and the journey urgent
And my future is bought and sold
Your kind eyes are looking closely
Examining my broken will
But I'm not so sure it's broken still
Whoever you are, guiding my steps so patiently
Whoever you are, you're changing me
Whoever you are, all of my scars are plain to see
Whoever you are, you're changing me
And I can feel the burden I've carried
Slowly slipping off of my back
And you were standing, intently staring
Now I'm aware of the grace I lack
And who am I to deserve that kindness
And what is it you will ask of me
I've seen enough to know
That nothing comes for free
Whoever you are, guiding my steps so patiently
Whoever you are, you're changing me
Whoever you are, all of my scars are plain to see
Whoever you are, you're changing me
And I admit that I have wondered at your games
And I am starting to believe it
Stumbling like a beast of burden
You're shouldering the load I bore
And one foot out in front of the other
I've forgotten what I came here for
Back straight and head held high
For the first time in my life
And all I want is to travel at your side
Whoever you are, guiding my steps so patiently
Whoever you are, you're changing me, you're changing me
Whoever you are, I'm not the man I claim to be
Whoever you are, you're changing me
You're changing me, changing me
Changing me
