give it time

i have seen
birds fly through colder skies
i have seen
trees grow through the ice
i have seen
flowers bloom
when the sun refused to rise
when there was no season

give it time
give it room to breathe
give it time
give it everything it needs
give it time
and you will see
it's already happening

i have fought
with myself for so long
i forgot
what the fight was all about
may be time
to accept what i know now
and start to move on

give it time
give it room to breathe
give it time
give it everything it needs
give it time
and you will see
it's already happening

starting to stretch
starting to change
starting to reach for the light
in it's own way
isn't it strange
how we suddenly see
what we do
is what we come to be

i can feel
the sun on my back
i can see
that the days are drawing out
i can touch
the dreams i hold
that once seemed far
but now are here
within reach

give it time
give it room to breathe
give it time
give it everything it needs
give it time
and you will see
it's already happening
