The day was too short
For all the things there were to do
Under a sky of unbroken blue.
The song of the surf
The feel of the breeze
As you glide down the street
Ever at ease.
The night was too long
For one soul to bear
Sometimes the song
Is no longer there.
And the cracks in the sky
Fall like pieces of glass
Leaving shards in the truth
That this too shall pass.
It’s peace we all want
It’s peace that we seek
Beyond pain, beyond grief
Beyond the world we see
With our eyes
Is the piece of you
We keep in our lives.
