I'm blind-folded on this roller coaster they call life
Keep trying to make it through the next turn
Knuckles white and holdin' tight

So here I go, takin' a curve,
But I know that I'm never alone
I think of you, I know you'd never let me go.

I feel connected, protected
It's like you're sitting right with me all the time.
You hear me, you're near me
And everything else's gonna be alright
'Cause nothin' can break this
Nothin' can break this
Nothin' can break this tie.
Connected...connected inside.

It's not an accident, the time we spent apart.
But now we're so close,
I can always find you right here in my heart.

You've given me somethin' I need
And I don't ever want it to end
Because of you
I know I've found my strength again

I feel connected, protected
It's like you're sitting right with me all the time.
You hear me, you're near me
And everything else's gonna be alright
'Cause nothin' can break this
Nothin' can break this
Nothin' can break this tie.
Connected...connected inside.

Everytime that I breathe, I can feel the energy.
Preachin' out, flowin' through
You to me and me to you.
Find your dream, walk or stand, you are everywhere I am.
Separate souls, you to find, touching at the speed of light.

Whoa, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh,
Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh

I feel connected, protected
It's like you're sitting right with me all the time.
You hear me, you're near me
And everything else's gonna be alright
Connected, protected, now you're in my mind
Now I'm doin' fine
You hear me, you're near me
And everything else's gonna be alright
'Cause nothin' can break this,
Nothin' can break this,
Nothin' can break this time.

Connected...connected inside
