Lyrics

What am I here for? It’s time you knew
Here’s what I’m here for: I’m here for you
Can you forgive me? Am I too late?
All the years that I wandered
And pondered were squandered
My heart insisted I seek you out
That you existed, my heart had no doubt
To share a journey that leads to heaven’s door
You’ll find is what I’m here for
