What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
there's love in the corners
2
and love down the straight highway
3
there's danger in the outskirts of town
4
and in what you don't say
5
you're either sinking or thinking
6
the dark's your romance
7
or a special one's shining a light on a chance
8
that it's all very worthy to ache
9
in the middle of the night
10
sometimes i can't sleep
11
i can't keep all these feelings at bay
12
i am rage, i am sorrow and grief
13
all alone in my way
14
i know humor and heartbreak
15
and people are life
16
if i keep my eyes closed
17
i'll be open to strife
18
because the powers that be send their love
19
in the middle of the night
20
i'm gonna stand up
21
and let myself be counted for
22
stand up now
23
i've got my one life
24
and what's it to amount to
25
if i don't learn how
26
to love you and love myself beside you
27
mix the gentle and proud
28
i want to love life.
29
the vision in the window told me --
30
stand up.
31
to my mother my father
32
my witnesses live in my jagged heart
33
that for years has been running like fire
34
as though that was its part
35
from lover to cover and ocean to sky
36
from desert to mountain and promise to lie
37
i can say that i've prayed to forgiveness
38
in the middle of the night
39
i'm gonna stand up
40
and let myself be counted for
41
stand up now
42
i've got my one life
43
and what's it to amount to
44
if i don't learn how
45
to love you and love myself beside you
46
mix the gentle and proud
47
i want to love life.
48
the vision in the window told me --
49
stand up.
50
now i can see love in the woman
51
and love in the man in myself
52
i see how most people just ache to be good
53
at expressing themselves
54
and i wish i could tell you just right what i mean
55
about the light shining down, if i'd only come clean
56
but for now i live with myself
57
in the middle of the night.
58
i'm gonna stand up
59
and let myself be counted for
60
stand up now
61
i've got my one life
62
and what's it to amount to
63
if i don't learn how
64
to love you and love myself beside you
65
mix the gentle and proud
66
i want to love life.
67
the vision in the window told me --
68
stand up.
