Şarkı sözleri : Hairspray. I Know Where I've Been.
There's a light in the darkness
Though the night is black as my skin
There's a light burning bright
Showing me the way but I know where I've been
There's a cry in the distance
It's a voice that comes from deep within
There's a cry asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead 'cause I know where I've been
There's a road, we've been travelin'
Lost so many on the way
But the riches will be plenty
Worth the price we had to pay
There's a dream in the future
There's a struggle, we have yet to win
And there's pride in my heart
'Cause I know where I'm going and I know where I've been
There's a road, we must travel
There's a promise, we must make
'Cause the riches will be plenty
Worth the risk and chances that we take
There's a dream in the future, there's a struggle
We have yet to win
Use that pride in our hearts
To lift us up, to tomorrow
'Cause just to sit still would be a sin
I know it, I know it
I know where I'm going
And Lord knows I know
Where I've been
Oh, when we win
I'll give thanks to my God
'Cause I know where I've been
Though the night is black as my skin
There's a light burning bright
Showing me the way but I know where I've been
There's a cry in the distance
It's a voice that comes from deep within
There's a cry asking why
I pray the answer's up ahead 'cause I know where I've been
There's a road, we've been travelin'
Lost so many on the way
But the riches will be plenty
Worth the price we had to pay
There's a dream in the future
There's a struggle, we have yet to win
And there's pride in my heart
'Cause I know where I'm going and I know where I've been
There's a road, we must travel
There's a promise, we must make
'Cause the riches will be plenty
Worth the risk and chances that we take
There's a dream in the future, there's a struggle
We have yet to win
Use that pride in our hearts
To lift us up, to tomorrow
'Cause just to sit still would be a sin
I know it, I know it
I know where I'm going
And Lord knows I know
Where I've been
Oh, when we win
I'll give thanks to my God
'Cause I know where I've been
