The Distance

It's not often I write like this. I'm lying here on my bed, having trouble sleeping.
It's cause the future is clouded, I know where my place is physically.
But that's not what's bothering me. It's not the things we know that
scare us, it's what we don't know that we most fear. I act like I don't care
because I want to be strong for you. What good is your guardian angel paralyzed
by fear?

Know this, I'm scared too, because the future can be so scary. The darkness can be
blinding. The clouds are looking too gray for rainbows and sunshine. The night is falling.
But I also know this, the night is darkest before the day. The morning will come, the sun
will shine brighter than it did before. The future may be scary but it can also be exciting.
Every darkened sky, has a shining ray. Every endless night has a dawning day.

Know this, I'll be here for you. I don't care where the future takes us or where the
yellow brick road goes. As long as I'm with you. We'll face the future together.

So meet me halfway... Across the sky, up where the earth belongs to you and I.
