Michael Tomlinson - Why We're Here lyrics

Oh, the world is surely bringing me

Gifts on the wind

Was I blind too many times

To see what that is

Well, I never want to be that again

I'm tired of running to get nowhere fast

Oh, I thought I'd never settle this

Score with my past

All those years I was fearing

The shadow I made

Oh I never want to do that again

Now we're coming into view

Of the crown of a hill

Something shows us what to do

And it always will

There are moments in life

When the sky comes clear

And we suddenly remember

Why we're here

I used to look out and nothing was real

It's like life was a movie

I just couldn't feel

Deep enough, I was young

But I felt old inside

And I wondered when I'd ever come alive

I'd get lonely in rainy weather

Then I'd crawl around in my pain

For some reason I just got better

I know in the rain, things grow

Living and loving, I'm breathing it in

Oh, the world is surely bringing me

Gifts on the wind

Was I blind too many times

To see what that is

Well, I never want to be that again

Now we're coming into view

Of the crown of a hill

Something show us what to do

And it always will

There are moments in life

When the sky comes clear

And we suddenly remember

Why we're here
