I’ve been lost and lonely
Searching for the one and only
I might as well be walking on the moon
Looking in at other lives
With envy that I can’t disguise
I was feeling like a guitar out of tune
Then in flew the sunshine and out ran the rain
And trumpets from heaven
Blow sweetly for me once again
O love don’t fail me now
O love don’t fail me now
January hold together
Soon will be more clement weather
O love don’t fail me now
And even though the snows are falling
The hopeful time of summers calling
City streets just can’t seem to tell
Under neon lights the eyes are thieving
With the empty hearts of the disbelieving
But I will be a light unto my self
I’ll glow with the life light I’ll dance in the rain
And trumpets from heaven
Blow sweetly for me once again
O love don’t fail me now
O love don’t fail me now
January hold together
Soon will be more clement weather
O love don’t fail me now
