I'm beginning to accept things as they are

To run my fingers over every little scar

In time I won't believe I made it out alive

In time I'll smile at the things that I survived

I see the water's rising higher than before

I know what's coming, will soon be knocking at my door

And I can't stop it, so I won't begin to try

I'll stand here waiting, let me look this in the eye

Here I go

I've come a long way

And I dream harder than I ever have before

I try to work things out in peace, I don't want a war

But I still worry, yeah I lose what little grip

I thought I had, I never had

Let it slip, let it go

I've come a long way

And in the face of all my doubt is where you'll find me

Looking in and looking out, I can see it all

In our finals days when we're sitting here alone

You and me from different angles just like years ago

Still talking fortune and what's the weather and all the places we've yet to see

Cups of tea at the dinner table, baby, that's lovely

We push our chairs back and take a walk beneath the golden moon

The stars seem brighter tonight, you say

Yeah, I think it's true

I can't imagine having done all this without you

It's like a dream or was it real

Either way, I'm glad I'm here

I'm glad we've come a long way

I'm glad

So glad
