Sometimes I wonder if I’ll see tomorrow’s sun That day will come for each of us That day will come Sometimes I wonder why I’m even here at all I feel so small, most days I feel so small If this is all there is If this is all there is Why wouldn’t I pour my heart out? Sometimes I think about how many of us there are If we’ve come so far Then we’ve got so far to go Sometimes I think about nature and nurture And things I’ve never been told Will I get it right before I get too old? If this is all there is If this is all there is Why wouldn’t I pour my heart out? If there is something more That waits beyond the door Why wouldn’t I pour my heart out? Some say heaven’s a state of mind Some say love is a lie But we won’t make either one in this place If we don’t try If this is all there is If this is all there is Why wouldn’t I pour my heart out? If there is something more That waits beyond the door Why wouldn’t I pour my heart out?

Pages on your final exam Made you everything that you am Boy, right in the bubble you stuck But, what’s that been bubblin’ up? What if you were given brand new information? And the thing you find does a job on your mind Do you think that you could change it? Havin’ an oblivious time Equal, an arithmetic sign Why the others falling behind? Maybe they're just not even trying What if you were given brand new information? And the thing you find does a job on your mind Do you think that you could change it? What if you were given brand new information? And the world you saw wasn’t the half of it all Do you think that you could change it? If the truth demands it, how will we rearrange? It’s not courage, it’s just willingness to change When we don’t know what to do or how to stand Could we listen? New information is at hand What if you were given brand new information? And the thing you find does a job on your mind Do you think that you could change it? What if you were given brand new information? And the world you saw wasn’t the half of it all Do you think that you could change it? And the world you live can’t stay as it is Do you think that you can change it?

Time heals all wounds I’ve heard it said In my blindness I’ve just nodded my head Open my eyes to the pain that can’t be solved with a phrase Can’t be solved in a day Open my eyes to the ways I've been standing by… Complacent It’s better than it was But my God we’ve got so far to go We’re better than we were But how long til every one of us knows We belong Here How long, how long, how long It’s better than it was But my God we’ve got so far to go We’re better than we were But how long til every one of us knows We belong Here

Is it just a fantasy A time when our tears will be wiped away A land without enemies Forgive me if I just can’t see it Don’t burst my bubble now I’m comfortable hiding behind words Can we just huddle now? Forgive me if I don’t have time for you Oh, oh I thought I thought I knew down from up Oh, I fought What was I fighting? Is it just a fantasy, what was I fighting for? Looking for the entrance door Hurry before anyone else shows I’ll get mine and they’ll surely get theirs After the door is closed Oh, oh I thought I thought I knew down from up Oh, I fought What was I fighting for? Oh, oh I thought I thought I knew down from up Oh, I fought What was I fighting? Is it just a fantasy, what was I fighting for? / Let the things that break my heart Open my mouth, turn into justice Now is the moment, I don’t need to see anything else Let the things that stir my soul Light up a fire, light it beneath me Run towards truth, no, I don’t need to see anything else

All my might, give it for another’s day Heart just try, make it til I see your face Lord sometimes, I never felt a better ache Pray me Godspeed, I’m comin your way Oh, oh Whenever I see my city over horizons My heart go oh, oh Honey, I see my city, I’m home All my all waiting when I hit the door Heart recall, this is what the beat is for Watch the clock? I don’t even check the score Begging every moment, just a minute more Oh, oh Whenever I see my city over horizons My heart go oh, oh Honey, I see my city, I’m home Pretending all we got is time Oh, and I’m falling I’m coming your way, coming your way Let’s not get too far ahead tonight We got this moment I’m coming your way, coming your way, coming for it Oh, oh Whenever I see my city over horizons My heart go oh, oh Honey, I see my city, I’m home

Next Year 03:28
You remember New Year’s Eve when we stayed up all night Said goodbye and parted on my porch at morning light You turned back and smiled a little, looked me in the eye You said “It’s gonna be a year.” I knew you’d be right Now How am I gonna put one foot in front of the other God, I need an angel now, not a friend or lover Can I find myself, there’s so much left to discover Tell me, who are we gonna be when we meet next year I can’t wait to be there when we meet, when we meet I can’t wait, I need to feel your face on my face I can’t wait to be there when we meet, when we meet Any time, any place, I can’t wait How am I gonna put one foot in front of the other God, I need an angel now, not a friend or love Can I find myself, there’s so much left to discover Tell me, who are we gonna be when we meet, when we meet How can we make this place the best it’s ever been Do you ever cry for no reason except everything If my heart bursts out my chest then let it be Because I believed we’d see a better day next year Tell me, who are we gonna be when we meet next year
