(I'm thinking about possibly using pieces of this for lyrics to a song, but I'm not sure if any of it is in the ballpark of being "good". Please let me know!!!)
It is the first time in my whole life I feel the warmth
It’s like the sun shines from the center of me, secretly
Under the blue sky I may be far away from the answers
But it doesn’t seem to matter to me any more
It’s finally become simple
No more waiting and waiting to die
I can wake up to another day
And wear the smile this time without the lie
It’s like a warm rain that never stops falling for me
It’s like a storm drain that channels all the tears away
A golden drop of honey on the tip of my tongue
The first passionate kiss we had when we were young
It’s finally become simple
No more waiting and waiting to die
I can wake up to another day
And wear the smile this time without the lie
I’m so glad today I could wake up knowing that
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
And I realize that the child in me lives for that
And I realize it’s ok to smile sometimes because
It’s finally become simple
No more waiting and waiting to die
I can wake up to another day
And wear the smile this time without the lie
