| Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme) |
Performed By: Mariah Carey
From the album: "Rainbow"
They can say anything they
want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow
Anyone to succeed
Hanging clouds over me
And they can try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
** Chorus**
'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
from me
They can do anything they want to you
If you let them in
But they won't ever win
If you cling to your pride
And just push them aside
see
I have learned there's an inner
peace i own
Something in my soul
That they connot possess
So i won't be afraid
And the darkness will fade
'cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
No
They can't take this
Precious love
I'll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where i need to go
They can say anything they want to
say
Try to break me down
But i won't face the ground
I will rise steadily
Sailing out of there reach
Oh Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams
'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
from me
