Reasons

(m. riperton r. rudolph) The reasons for my life are in a million faces Like aching promises I feel them in my bones Slipping through my fingers to dance upon the road The reasons for my life are more than I can hold But oh, the sweet delight to sing with all my might To spark the inner light of wonder burning bright You're not alone You're not alone The reasons for my life are buried in deep places Words once could awaken them These seeds that I have sown Ringing through the madness to crash against the cold The reasons for my life cannot be bought or sold The reasons for my life are filling all my spaces Like rushing waters flow, they carry me along Twisting through my memory to pull free from the load The reasons for my life are more than I was told
