Born Into a Light

This song sings to my soul...hope it will to yours also. xoxo


For everything that's wrong
There is a worried man,
There is a reason why
We just don't understand, but will...
You gotta keep the faith.

Be patient oh the past
is just a memory, and heal
Heal your vines,
You'll heal inside eventually

We were born into a light
We were born of light
We were born into a light

For everyone alone,
I wish you faith and hope
All the strength to cope
To be your own best friend,
have confidence and keep the faith

Be patient oh the past
is just the memory and heal
Heal your vines,
you'll heal inside eventually

We were born into a light
We were born into a light
We were born of light
We were born into a light

You Are Here

A beautiful reminder to be present where ever we are:


You wonder why you wonder when
You wonder how now and then
How you became who you've become
You are here and yet you dream of being there
Of being where you think the good life has begun

Every darkened hallway, every fallen dream
Every battle lost and every shadow in between
Will bring you to your knees and closer to the reason

And there's no making cases
For getting out or trading places
And there's no turning back, no you are here

Who can say who made the choice
In the matter of your birth
Who brought about that fateful day
Well you are here and born with fire and desire
You're the only one who can stand in your own way

Every broken arrow, every hardened smile
Every foolish gamble and every lonely mile
Will bring you to your knees and closer to the reason

And there's no making cases
For getting out or trading places
And there's no turning back, no you are here

And every sign of love, every seed that's growing
Every sweet surrender, to that silent knowing
Will bring you to your knees and closer to the reason

And there's no making cases
For getting out, for trading places
And there's no turning back, no you are here
