There are days when I feel so afraid I can hardly remember to breathe When reality crashes in wave after wave Pulling me farther beneath So what's the point in planning for a future If it all can be stolen away? It's all I can do to hold on and survive When the colors have faded to gray But my children need so much more from me And they give me the strength to go on Whatever may come All that matters now Is where I go from here There's an easier way if I live for today The beating of my heart Is all that matters He makes sense of all of my chaos In ways I could never explain He turns all of my sadness into a smile He's helping me live life again It's the light in the eyes of my children It's the sound of their laughter once more It's a glimpse of a life I dared only to dream And the dreamer that I could restore And I know that some may not understand But he's guiding me safely to shore Not afraid anymore All that matters now Is where I go from here There's an easier way if I live for today The singing in my heart Is all that matters He takes me by the wing There's an easier way if I live for today The singing in my heart Is all that matters
