Running for a place to go
Nothing around with an open door
Stopped and trapped in a corner
I tell myself it's all over

When I think it's the end of the road
I could take the detour below

But I'm surrounded
And astounded
They've held me up
Ask if life's really worth it
I'm surrounded
I'm surrounded

They grab me by the neck
And release me
From confinement

Rising above these clouds
I look below and gaze about
I'm not really leaving much behind
I'm gaining more than I had with time

Again I'm surrounded
And again astounded
Not the same as before
This is a good thing
I'm surrounded
I'm surrounded

They grab me by the wrists
And handcuff me
In halos
In wondrous halos

Surrounded in halos
(I'm surrounded)
And I like it
(And I'm delighted)
I love it this way
(Ohh...)
Lock me up take me away
(Take and release me)

Then release me
(Let me roam where)
In a place where I can belong
(Where I can be strong)
And please show me
(Locked in halos)
A place where nothing can go wrong
(Locked in love that can't go wrong)

Restrained but free
(Beside of me)
I'm in a daze
(Needless of space)
Where everything
(I'm surrounded)
Is so golden glazed
(With angels in silent trace)

Lock me up and
Take me away
