lyrics

Another gray day outside.
Nowhere to go, nowhere to hide.
I want to see more than these walls,
But when I leave things are all
Masked faced, closed places
where we used to go.
I miss you so.

It's hard to rise every day.
Hard to go to bed at night.
I stay up late watching tv,
Jealous of those on the screen,
who can gather, love, and fight.

But then I hear birds outside.
And I see my daughter's eyes
And the sunlight streaming through,
Forget-me-nots so blue remind me
There is beauty, there is light.
This is not an endless night.
This too shall pass, this too shall pass, this too shall pass.

All seems lonely, all seems dark.
Boarded windows, gated parks.
Tears as frequent as the rain
that seems to fall now every day.
And screens cannot do justice
to all the ones I miss.

But then a friend sends a message to me.
I smell the raindrops on our lilac tree.
And my neighbor waves across the way,
I have my music I can play.
And I see
There is beauty, there is light.
This is not an endless night.
This too shall pass, this too shall pass, this too shall pass.

I hear my children's laughter at home.
So alive, so loving, so young.
And I think
That too shall pass.
