Find Your Happy Place

Rain falling courage failing

An icy wind blows through your heart
The road ahead is bleak and empty
You know you have to make a start
In the dim you see the glowing embers
Of the bridges you have burned
Now search the darkness
And listen for the whisper of The Long Lost Lesson Learned

Find your happy place

When you know you are losing the race
When you just can’t keep the pace
When what is lost can not be found
When the clock-spring of the universe has come unwound

Remember the songbird still sings

After the winter storms comes a new spring
There is a new dawn after the dark night
And the sun still rises; even after the hard fight

We are all made of blood and bone

What we have now is not ours to own
The greedy king can think what he thinks
But even he can’t hold his gold forever

Find your happy place

It can take away the sting
Help you see the sunshine through the rain
Help you laugh through your tears
And take the power from your fears
When life hits you hard
And love leaves you burnt and scarred
Find your happy place
