Not A Simple Thing

I can't change anything Not a simple thing Not the sun, nor the rain The want for my heart to sing I can't change what went wrong Nor can I make it right No matter how much I wish it would go It is there when I lay at night I can't change who I am What I am today My honesty has caused but pain My heart has broken along the way I can't change my wealth Or all things great and small Yet I can support others To hear them when they call I can't change anything And OH... this gives me pain I have to accept all is done There is nothing... nothing to gain I can't change anything Not a simple thing I must see light in each new day For where there is hope there is a way Life's trials may seem so trivial Breaking Eggs Shattering windows Watching teardrops fall Yet there is a reason for each day A reason for us ALL Copyright Reserved May 2014 LYN PAUL
