Inspired by Brett Dennen

Singing in the cemetary,
losing all they've got,
and pleading for some way to survive.
If pennies paid the price
for all the lost and broken things,
then maybe we'd all be alright.

Chorus:
There's so much we don't know
ad places we'll never get to see.
Oh but how id I get so blessed,
when others are suffering.

But the water's still running
on down those rivers,
and flooding all the trees.
And places that once were so safe and secure,
are now just a memory.

We may ask ourselves,
"why does it have to be this way?"
or whether it's worth the fight,
but I guess we all have out own things,
but know in the end,
it will all be alright,
so rest and sleep tonight.

Now we can't be judged
on our own situations,
but how we make it through.

It's a gloomy day
but there's sign of hope.
You see far away
there's a pattern of light.
It shines through the window
of that early flight.
The one you said you'd be on
oh one day.
When all your cares are gone
who do you care for?
If all was said and done,
would you say the things you should have said?
Before the world came to town,
just to watch us all burn down.

Time and Space

Here,
there is no space
there is no time
just you and I.

There,
the space is deep
our time is creeping
slowly to and end.

Chorus:
I can't say
how I feel.
because with you here
this can't be real.
I've been searching
for that place
where nothing matters
not even time or space.

If, you stay here
here with me
simply watching as the clouds take shape.
Space,
won't hide our fear
and time can't take you
so just stay near

(Chorus)

I've been wanting more than this.
If time and space don't matter
this rocket can't miss
Snow falls on the moonlit pond.
Missing you has never been so hard.
I run outside as if to find you there,
calling me and catching snowflakes in your hair.
But nothing in this world could bring you back to me.
I can't believe you're gone
but why couldn't I see?
If only we would reach out
to grab hold of what is right in front of us.
To that one sure thing
that we know will never fail us in our time of need
Forget your pride
Let go of your fear
There's nothing more real
than the present.

Watching As the Clouds Take Shape

Lay in the grass.
Look to the sky.
Take time to relax,
and just let it fly by.

Forget all your cares,
though there be many.
There's so much above you.
this is only the beginning.

There's cosmos and galaxies,
and change taking place.
But always remember,
He knows your face.

Who knows where you're going?
Who knows why?
With so many questions,
and so many lies.

But don't let this fear,
bring you down.
We all have our troubles.
So don't where a frown.

For we're ever changing
like the clouds above the ground


watch as the clouds take shape.
