To Heal

Tears rise up to the sky
and return to your eyes from the sea

time goes away goes away and doesn’t return

and your heart is going to heal

going to heal

going to heal

The earth appears to be still

and the sun appears to turn,

and although it might seem like a lie

your heart is going to heal

going to heal

going to heal

and it’s going to be broken again

as long as it’s reminded to beat

and no one knows why one day love is born

no one knows why one day love dies

it’s because no one is born knowing

that to die, is also the law of life.

And just like when the weather turns cold

the birds will leave in flocks again

your heart is going to heal

is going to heal

is going to heal

and you will be hopeful again

and soon you will also despair when you least expect it

your heart is going to heal

is going to heal
is going to heal

and it’s going to be broken again
as long as it’s reminded to beat
