If you want this side of me
If you hope there’s more to see
You can’t wait, this time tomorrow
You’ll be still holding on, I guarantee.

Come taste the water, taste the day
I’m an ocean, you’re the bay.
It’s been said that I’m an outlaw
With too much time to steal away.

You know, you know that I could never change
They say, you say, there’s need to disarrange.
And all I hear are lies that re-appear
And despite all this you still want this side of me.

God give me peace,
God give me rest
I need time to re-assess.
You see I’m tired, but that’s life though
I still hold my convictions to the test.

You know…

Just one look towards the next day I’ll see for sure
That everything moves on.
Take one more, one more step forward
And turn to see That what is done is done.

I have learned that I’ll be OK.
I have searched, and I’ve been OK.

Finding how to live without all the weary thoughts In this revolving door
So I’ll hold my brow Up where my dreams lead to greater things
And there will be much more.

I have learned…

Walking out, I never pictured this day would come
And it would feel this good
No more doubt, For I am going where few have stood,
But many wish they could.

I have learned that I’ll be OK
I have searched, and I’ve been OK

Take me back to the house where I grew up again
I remember every moment shared
Times, they change, but the walls remain the same
We were never frightened, cold or scared

Whatever happened to the pictures on the wall?
The scarf you made when the snow began to fall?
The pen marked doorway where the kids were growing tall?
We made this house a happy home

Take me back to the garden of those summer days
Dens to build and new places to hide
These are memories that make me smile always
You were fearless, I was by your side

Whatever happened to the clock that used to chime?
The creaky floorboards on the stairs we used to climb
I’d love to see us as we were just one more time
We made this house a happy home

Whatever happened to the markings on the tree
The summer stretching as far as we could see
I’d love to see us as we were just you and me
This house it was a happy home
This house it was a happy home
