Nobody knows just where I've been - No one but me

They're on the outside looking in - No one can see

Stormy days when I was younger

In many ways they made me stronger

'Cos I've been knocked down

And I've been lifted up

Cried a thousand tears of joy and fear

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

Seen my dreams in flames

Rise back up again

I have known despair and I've walked on air

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

No one can tell me how it feels to be afraid

All of the ghosts they won't lie still - They know my name

Late at night I hear them calling

But that's a place I won't be falling

'Cos I've been knocked down

And I've been lifted up

Cried a thousand tears of joy and fear

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

Seen my dreams in flames

Rise back up again

I have known despair and I've walked on air

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

And I'm telling you what I've been through

'Cos I'm still standing here

It's the simple truth

When hope is nowhere to be found it always comes around

'Cos I've been knocked down

And I've been lifted up

Cried a thousand tears of joy and fear

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

I've been locked out

And I've walked back in

I have known despair and I've walked on air

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

I've been hurt, I've been down

I've been in, I've been out

I've seen dreams all in flames

All around, around again...

I've been there

I've been hurt, I've been down

I've been in, I've been out

I've been sad, I've been bad

I've been there

I've been there

I've been there

You know I've been there

I've been there

Yes I've been there

You know I've been there

Gonna rise, gonna rise, gonna rise,

'Cos I've been there
