I can tell by this crack of light |
|
Oh girl this is gonna be, it's gonna be a beautiful day |
|
And I can tell by this stretch of silver |
|
Spreading all out across the curves of your face |
|
And for the love, for the love of God |
|
I've gathered up my pride, I've gathered up my bits and bone |
|
And in a world that broke me down |
|
I'm standing up, but not alone |
|
'Cause this is a healing song, oh and I've got a heart that fails |
|
But love is pushing me along, I'm lifting up above this veil |
|
This is a healing song, oh and I don't know if you can tell |
|
But love is pushing me along |
|
I'm pressing up against the rail, pressing up against the rail |
|
I can smell the summer in the air |
|
And I swear I can almost see, I can almost see my soul |
|
Son, I know that it don't seem fair |
|
But I'm turning away from here, and oh Lord, I am coming home |
|
I've got friends here that love me |
|
I've got all this mercy beating in my blood |
|
And I've got friends here that love me |
|
And that's something good, that's something good |
|
You and I, we've come so far |
|
We've come so far, we cannot look back |
|
I said you and I, we've come so far |
|
We've come so far, we cannot look back |
|
I said you and I (you and I, we've come so far) |
|
We've come so far (you and I, we've come so far) |
|
We've come so far (you and I, we've come so far) |
|
We cannot look back (you and I cannot look back) |
|
I said you and I (you and I, we've come so far) |
|
We've come so far (you and I, we've come so far) |
|
We've come so far (you and I, we've come so far) |
|
No, we cannot look back (we cannot look back) |
