When you are here

When it rains it pours and opens doors

And floods the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dry

And in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we love

That have to say goodbye

And as I float along this ocean

I can feel you like a notion that won't seem to let me go

'Cause when I look to the sky something tells me you're here with me

And you make everything alright

And when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with me

And I can always find my way when you are here

There are days

When I am not sure why

Why I should get out of bed

Why I should bother to dress

Why I should find my way to an office

Where hurting people share

And hope

And only sometimes

Find peace

Why bother

Why smile

Why breathe

Why?

And then

Along those sometimes dusty

Sometimes muddy

Sometimes snowy

Country roads

I look to the sky

To the sun, the moon, the stars

To clouds gray

And clouds white

To golden rising

And golden setting

And my soul awakes

And my heart races

And the pain and fear

Is lost in the greatness

Into the gray blue goldness

And I breathe again
