    Lyrics:

    3 am and still can’t sleep
    thinking bout tomorrow what
    if I‘mgonna fail
    what if i’m not brave enough

    And then i’m looking at your pic next to my bed
    you used to say

    You were brave enough to come till here
    You were brave enough to live your dream
    You can walk with your head held high
    You were brave enough to try
    Oh honey trust me you’re more than brave
    More than brave

    Tomorrows gonna be the day
    when it decides if i can live my dream anylonger
    i’m sared of loosing everything
    i’m scared of being not brave enough

    And then i’m looking at your pic next to my bed
    you used to say

    you were brave enough to come till here
    You were brave enough to live your dream
    You can walk with your head held high
    You were brave enough to try
    Oh honey trust me you’re more than brave
    More than brave

    I’ve got a dream that i keep
    A part oft hat i’ve been living now
    but it’s time to live it all
    And i know now

    I was brave enough to come till here
    I was brave enough to live my dream
    I can walk with my head held high
    I start to believe your words
    your more than brave

    I was brave enough to come till here
    I was brave enough to live my dream
    I can walk with my head held high
    And i start to believe
    That i am brave

    Funny how writers relate to pictures more than they do people. I'm the same. My wall's covered with pictures.

    It is a great pleasure listening to this song. The monotony of it is a pleasant hypnotic drone. Sometimes your songs remind me of Alanis Morrisette (songs like Hand in My Pocket and Thank You). If you keep writing like this, you'll have your own "Jagged Little Pill" in a few years time!
    @Doug: I think the word 'till' means 'up to' here. Correct me when I'm wrong, Lady Jane, but I think 'come 'till here' is a translation of German 'bis her gekommen'. For me it's confusing as well 'cause the Dutch word 'tot' ('tot hier gekomen') can also both mean 'up to' and 'until'. When I read the lyric the first time 'come 'till here' didn't strike me as odd, but that was because my native tongue got in the way.

    Yay! I love it when people write songs with a seemingly pop oriented sound. You may not have intended for that but that's how I got it lol. I am also confused on the meaning of "till".
