When life has cut too deep and left you hurting The future you had hoped for is now burning And the dreams you held so tight lost their meaning And you don't know if you'll ever find the healing You're gonna make it You're gonna make it And the night can only last for so long Whatever you're facing If your heart is breaking There's a promise for the ones who just hold on Lift up your eyes and see And the sun is rising Sun is rising Every high and every low you're gonna go through You don't have to be afraid I am with you (I am with you) In the moments you're so weak you feel like stopping Let the hope you have light the road you're walking Cause you're gonna make it You're gonna make it The night can only last for so long Whatever you're facing If your heart is breaking There's a promise for the ones who just hold on Lift up your eyes and see The sun is rising And even when you can't imagine how How you're ever gonna find your way out Even when you're drabbling in your doubt Just look beyond the clouds The sun is rising The sun is rising Just look beyond the clouds The sun is rising The sun is rising Whatever you're facing If your heart is breaking There's a promise for the ones who just hold on Lift up your eyes and see The sun is rising The sun is rising The sun is rising yeah The sun is rising ooh oh Yeah yeah Even when you can't imagine how How you're ever gonna find your way out Even when you're drabbling in your doubt Just look beyond the clouds Even when you can't imagine how How you're ever gonna find your way out Even when you're drabbling in your doubt Just look beyond the clouds

The kind of fear that I got used to Left me when I finally left you And after all that you put me through I found myself a different view Don't want you to hold me, console me, control me You know that I am better off out here alone Don't act like you know me, you've showed me that, clearly Can't you see me smile as I'm watching you go 'Cause usually in the morning I'd be out the falling in the light of every word that you say But honey now I'm better the sun is up for ever I just see you in a different shade Found myself thinking about you It doesn't scare me like it used to do The sky above a different blue The rain it doesn't cut right through Don't want you to hold me, console me, control me You know that I am better off out here alone Don't act like you know me, you've showed me that, clearly Can't you see me smile as I'm watching you go 'Cause usually in the morning I'd be out the falling in the light of every word that you say But honey now I'm better, the sun is up for ever I just see you in a different shade I used to think the world revolved around you darling but it's crashing down at lightning speed I used to love you but I needed you a little more, now all I really need is me All I really need is me 'Cause usually in the morning I'd be out the falling in the light of every word that you say But honey now I'm better, the sun is up for ever I just see you in a different shade 'Cause usually in the morning I'd be out the falling in the light of every word that you say But honey now I'm better the sun is up for ever I just see you in a different shade Ooooooh Honey, now I'm better the sun is up for ever I just see you in a different shade

Why don't we stop foolin' ourselves? The game is over, over, over No good times, no bad times There's no times at all Just The New York Times Sittin' on the windowsill Near the flowers We might as well be apart It hardly matters, we sleep separately And drop a smile passin' in the hall But there's no laughs left 'Cause we laughed them all And we laughed them all In a very short time Time is tapping on my forehead Hangin' from my mirror Rattlin' the teacups And I wonder- How long can I delay? We're just a habit, like saccharin And I'm habitually feelin' kinda blue But each time I try on the thought of leavin' you I stop I stop and think it over

Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit Blessed is the lamb whose blood flows Blessed are the sat upon, spat upon, ratted on Oh, Lord, why have you forsaken me? I got no place to go I've walked around Soho for the last night or so Ah, but it doesn't matter, no Blessed is the land and the kingdom Blessed is the man whose soul belongs to Blessed are the meth drinkers, pot sellers, illusion dwellers Oh, Lord, why have you forsaken me? My words trickle down From a wound that I have no intention to heal Blessed are the stained glass, window pane glass Blessed is the church service, makes me nervous Blessed are the penny rookers, cheap hookers, groovy lookers Oh, Lord, why have you forsaken me? I, I have tended my own garden much too long

Cloudy The sky is gray and white and cloudy Sometimes I think it's hanging down on me And it's a hitchhike a hundred miles I'm a ragamuffin child Pointed finger, painted smile I left my shadow waitin' down the road for me a while Cloudy My thoughts are scattered and they're cloudy They have no borders, no boundaries They echo and they swell From Tolstoy to Tinker Bell Down from Berkeley to Carmel Got some pictures in my pocket and a lot of time to kill Hey, sunshine I haven't seen you in a long time Why don't you show your face and bend my mind? These clouds stick to the sky Like a floating question, "Why?" They linger there to die They don't know where they're going and, my friend, neither do I Cloudy Cloudy Cloudy Cloudy Cloudy

Old friends, old friends Sat on their park bench like bookends A newspaper blown through the grass Falls on the round toes Of the high shoes of the old friends Old friends, winter companions, the old men Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sunset The sounds of the city sifting through trees Settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends Can you imagine us years from today Sharing a park bench quietly? How terribly strange to be 70 Old friends, memory brushes the same years Silently sharing the same fears
