The seasons, they rise and fall
And I struggle to explain
To the sun, why I just don't
Change my path and flee the rain
I exist here and nowhere
Wrap around and take me down
Where the crashing waves of blue
Soothe me 'till I'm lost, yet found
And when I breathe
A voice tells me
To listen closely to the sound
Of the words I want to hear
And the words that I have feared
For far too long
It's not easy
But I'm learning
Every moment, up and down
It's not a crime
It's just the passing of the years
Of the years that we call time
Now the day begins again
I'm ready for the unknown
Smile and dance as the rain falls
Realizing I have grown
And when I breathe
A voice tells me
To listen closely to the sound
Of the words I want to hear
And the words that I have feared
For far too long
It's not easy
But I'm learning
Every moment, up and down
It's not a crime
It's just the passing of the years
Of the years that we call time
Through the good
Through the bad and the gray
Through the highs and the darkness of day
I will feel it all
Embrace the rise and fall
For it's not a crime
It's just the passing of the years
Of the years that we call time
