Janis Ian
I Am the One
[Verse 1]
I am the rays of the rising sun
Snow on the mountains of the moon
The far-flung canopy of stars
The shadows of late afternoon

[Verse 2]
I am the wisdom of the sage
I am the refuge of all who weep
I am the mother of all who live
I am the promises I keep

[Chorus]
I am the one who sits with sorrow
I am the one who feels your pain
I am the hope of your tomorrow
When all is lost, I still remain
I am the one who will remain

[Verse 3]
I am the seed that longs to bloom
The river yearning for the sea
The heartfelt hope of every womb
I am thе faith you place in me

[Verse 4]
I am the silеnce and the sound
The gentle rain that breaks the stone
I am the dream of love unbound
I am the way that calls you home
[Chorus]
I am the one who sits with sorrow
I am the one who feels your pain
I am the hope of your tomorrow
When all is lost, I will remain
I am the one who will remain
I am the one who sits with sorrow
I am the one who feels your pain
I am the hope of your tomorrow
When all is lost, I will remain
I am the one, I still remain
