Not Today

I wanted to hold your hand & walk with you through foreign lands

Unsure of where this road might lead, never once thought to stop me

Weather does not determine whether or not I’ll get lost in my thoughts

And tell time by the sun overhead, longing for things unsaid

 

Today there’s still pain

I know I’ve got to move on but it’s just not the same

And anything that I say won’t make sense, not today, not today

 

And I’ll walk through this forest alone

While the birds above sing of home

 Moon, rise up fast and shed your light

Change this dark day into night

“if only” the words that keep the here from there

No longer hold their scare

Because “if only” were to happen here

It still would not take my tears

 

Today there’s still pain

I know I’ve got to move on but it’s just not the same

And anything that I say won’t make sense, not today

It’s like pretending you’re fine,

That you’re okay but not today

 

I’m crying out for God, I’m crying for the things I love (repeat)

 

Today, there’s still pain

I know I’ve got to move on, but it’s just not the same

And anything that I say won’t make sense, not today

It’s like pretending you’re fine

That you’re okay, but not today, not today
