"My New Life" - dad's song

Dad wrote this for me when I was "sleepin". :) I think it's beautiful. I love John Mayer and I listened to him non-stop back then, so we always said it would be amazing if he covered it. I actually met him the day after I got out of the hospital, I should've asked him!



My New Life...

WHY DO I HEAR
BUT I CANNOT SEE
WHY AM I HERE
THIS CANNOT BE


IS THIS THE BEGINNING
IS THIS THE END
I FEEL THAT I'M BROKEN
HOW WILL I MEND


AT TIMES I FLY
I SEE THE SKY
I FEEL THE WIND
I'M ASKING WHY
I HEAR THE WORDS
" THERE WILL BE STRIFE
BUT DONT DISPAIR
THERE'LL BE NEW LIFE "


I'M MOVING ON
THERE IS NO TIME
ONLY THE LIGHTS
BRING PEACE OF MIND


I BEGIN TO BREATHE
I'M READY TO SPEAK
I OPEN MY EYES
NEW LIFE I SEEK


SO WHAT WAS OLD
I STILL CAN HOLD
BUT LEAVE IT THERE
IS WHAT I'M TOLD
THIS LIFE IS NEW
THIS LOVE IS TRUE
AND ALL ARE HERE
TO WELCOME YOU


SO HERE I AM
AND THAT WAS THEN
I CAN RECALL
THE WORDS AGAIN
THE WIND THE SKY
THE BREATH THE WHY
ITS WORTH THE STRIFE
ITS MY NEW LIFE
