I see it all at last
(J Pereira)
Running out of time
To do all I wanted to do
‘Cause life got in the way
Every single day
Shadows moved too fast,
Moments slipped right past
me
Dreams I used to chase,
Are now lost in empty space
answers I thought I’d find
Have all been left behind
And forgotten in time
As they moved away
from me
The weight of what I missed
And all that is left to do
Is now a heavier task
And I need to see it through
I am haunted by the past
But I see it all at last
with you
The weight of what I missed
Still heavy in my mind
I’m no longer lost or blind
But I know I have to find
What I thought was left behind
When I met and fell in love with you
—
In the quiet of night,
When I search for a trace of light,
Darkness closes in tight
Hiding all that’s bright,
Yet somewhere in this black,
I know there’s a way back
for me
Bound by chains I can’t see
That still have their hold on me
Adding weight to life
Turning day into night
Turning hope into song
Helping me along
the way
