A lifetime

You’ve Been Running~

And still never moving

You’ve been running all your life
trying to outrun
the white hot heat of the many
yesterdays meltdown
tomorrow will be better
but never is
You’ve been kissed by every frog
in the pond
never a prince
or
a princess with her wand
Believing that with patience
better times will awaken
upon an horizon
asleep in the morning’s mist

CHORUS:
But stand firm
The days are getting brighter
the light of each
getting longer
Come rain
Come sun
Come whatever
you need no longer run
Have courage
The tides are changing
The stars are aligning
No more distractions
you’ve become their center of attraction

Long hiding your true feelings
Having had to smile
when you would have rather
called them on their lies
Being a trooper
by swallowing their emotional slaughter
Always the one to say
It’s ok
I’ll wait another day

CHORUS:
But stand firm
The days are getting brighter
the light of each
getting longer
Come rain
Come sun
Come whatever
you need no longer run
Have courage
The tides are changing
The stars are aligning
No more distractions
you’ve become their center of attraction

Today you’ve awoken to a new light
The sun shines upon your face
The birds are singing
your song
The many promised tomorrows
finally came along
realizing
you are the only one to depend on

CHORUS:
So stand firm
The days are getting brighter
the light of each
getting longer
Come rain
Come sun
Come whatever
you need no longer run
Have courage
The tides are changing
The stars are aligning
No more distractions
you’ve become their center of attraction
