Ever Since The World Began [Tommy Shaw]

Ever Since The World Began
Written by Jim Peterik and Frankie Sullivan

I'll never know what got me here
As if somebody led my hand
It seems I hardly had to steer
My course was planned

And destiny it guides us all
By its every rise and fall
But only for a moment
Time enough to catch our breath again

And we're just another piece of the puzzle
Just another part of the plan
How one life touches the other
Is so hard to understand

So we'll walk this road together
Try to go as far as we can
And we have waited for this moment in time
Ever since the world began

Taken in the times gone by
We wonder how it all began
We'll never know and still we try to understand

And even though the seasons change
The reason shall remain the same
It's love that keeps us holding on
'Til we can see the sun again

And we're just another piece of the puzzle
Just another part of the plan
How one life touches the other
Is so hard to understand

So we'll walk this road together
Try to go as far as we can
And we have waited for this moment in time
Ever since the world began

So I'll stand alone
The man of stone
Against the driving rain
And the night has got your number
And the wind it cries your name

So we'll search for clues
Win or lose
In this we're all the same
Where hope still burns eternal
We're the keepers of the flame

Interpretation

I feel like somehow I'm guided by destiny. We all fit into a larger picture like pieces in a jigsaw puzzle.  Our lives are all interconnected, so let's do walk together.  Everyone at some point will stop to wonder how life began. One thing we can be sure of is that love makes life worth living. No matter what happens, we will get through it, filled with hope for the future.
