morning comes in paradise, morning comes in light

this new sun rises, and i have new eyes
i can see things clearly now

i can see your heart
quivering in vulnerability
wondering where to go from here
while you sip the wine
that isn't exactly an escape
but it makes you feel safe

i can see joy
that blurs the edges of life
and makes it difficult
to imagine an end
to hope

i can see a path before me
that i didn't see til now
and i fear its the one i should take
but how do you take
the first step in the right direction?

i can see love
freely given
but left unaccepted
and i feel the call
for more
to be more
to do more

i can see beauty
in the little things
and in each human
that has been hidden or lost or stolen
beauty that saves
that's beautiful
