I Start To Understand
Written by Michael S. Hysinger – michaelhysinger@yahoo.com
The loneliness lies sleeping - I see it in my dreams
Oh that’s the place I fear the most to be
For when it starts to waken - And sees me here alone
I know for sure that it will come for me
I’ve been afraid for oh so long to look inside and see
The sorrow growing there inside of me
And now I feel it weigh me down
It’s time to let it go and then be free
I must release all the tears within - Love is the season I fear
That is the reason I’m here again - I start to understand
I see the answer slowly - Reveal itself to me
From far beyond the shadows of my mind
I must move through the feelings - Oh buried in my soul
And not conceal the love that’s there inside
I’ve danced around the pain for all these years and now I see
That tears are shaped just like the candle’s flame
Both are slowly burning there
Reminding me that I must do the same
I must release all the tears within - Love is the season I fear
That is the reason I’m here again - I start to understand
Light shining through the rain - Pouring within
Freedom lies through the pain - Now I begin
To see the way more clearly - The path that leads me there
I now begin the journey to be free
It used to seem so fearful - But now I’m not afraid
The only thing there stopping me was me
I’ve danced around the pain for all these years and now I see
That tears are shaped just like the candle’s flame
Both are slowly burning there
Reminding me that I must do the same
I must release all the tears within - Love is the season I fear
That is the reason I’m here again - I start to understand
