Ravine - Ace Of Base Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Have you heard
Have you heard
'Bout this girl who was ripped up by her roots
Wanna know what she learned?
Like humility - you win when you lose
I have learned
I have learned
The most horrifying nights have ends
I was hurt
I was lost
In the dark I found the way to a friend

[Chorus]
I am standing here in my ravine
Once again I see a piece of the sky
And my joy'll never be denied
'Cause I was meant to be here
The only place on earth
Where you are near
Where you are near

[Verse 2]
Was a flower
So frail
And I let the trees grow wild around me
Grew so high
Hid the sky
Shaded everything I needed to see
Then one night
Someone came
Took a knife and ripped me up by my roots
Tossed astray
Far away
In my darkest night I started to pray
[Chorus]
I am standing here in my ravine
Once again I see a piece of the sky
And my joy'll never be denied
'Cause I was meant to be here
The only place on earth
Where you are near
Where you are near

[Bridge]
Why do you
Why do you ask
Why I'm not blaming my God (Blaming my God)
I'll tell you
I'll tell you what
He was the only one there

[Chorus]
Well I am standing here in my ravine
Once again I see a piece of the sky
And my joy never will be denied
'Cause I was meant to be here
The only place on earth
Where you are near
I am standing here in my ravine
Once again I see a piece of the sky
And my joy'll never be denied
'Cause I was meant to be here
The only place on earth
Where you are near
Where you are near
