Stripes

Been waiting for so long
Like a sailor lost at sea
Will I ever make it home again?
Then I hear your voice whispering to me

My child, my beloved, I know how hard you tried
I've heard your every prayer, I held you when you cried
My promise are forever, just right before your eyes
Believe it 'cause the moment's all right

Step right up, you burn your stripes
Listen up, it's the sign of the times
Fall instead and say goodbye
I'm leaving all the pain, leaving you behind

Step right up, you burn your stripes
This side up, you're the claim of the prize
Oh, whoa, yeah
Made it to the finish line

Feel the winds of change, yeah (feel the winds of change)
And the magic in the air (the magic in the air)
Now I'm basking in your light again
Calm the wars, sickness disappear (disappear)

My child, my beloved, I know how hard you tried
I've heard your every prayer, I held you when you cried
My promise are forever, just right before your eyes
Believe it 'cause your moment's all right

Step right up, you burn your stripes
Listen up, it's the sign of the times (yeah)
Fall instead and say goodbye (yeah)
I'm leaving all the pain, leaving you behind (leaving you behind)

Step right up, you burn your stripes
This side up, you're the claim of the prize
Oh, whoa, yeah
Made it to the finish line

Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (hey, yeah)
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh (ooh)
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (hey, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Step right up, you burn your stripes
Listen up, it's the sign of the times (sign of the times)
Fall instead and say goodbye
I'm leaving all the pain, leaving you behind (I'm leaving you behind)

Step right up, you burn your stripes
This side up, you're the claim of the prize (claim of the prize)
Oh, whoa, yeah
We made it to the finish line
