Connecting the Dots

LIFE CHANGES IN THE INSTANT. YOU SIT DOWN TO DINNER AND LIFE AS YOU KNOW IT ENDS
(JOAN DIDION)

IT DOESN'T HELP TO ASK WHY

YOU CAN'T CONNECT THE DOTS LOOKING FORWARD; YOU CAN ONLY CONNECT THEM LOOKING BACKWARDS. SO YOU HAVE TO TRUST THAT THE DOTS WILL SOMEHOW CONNECT IN YOUR FUTURE. YOU HAVE TO TRUST IN SOMETHING — YOUR GUT, DESTINY, LIFE, KARMA, WHATEVER

THE FOLLOWING IS ABOUT CONNECTING THE DOTS

ISN’T IT TRUE HOW THE HARD THINGS IN LIFE
MAKE US THE PEOPLE WE ARE

AND IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE LIFE EASY
BUT WOULD WE HAVE COME QUITE SO FAR

FOR ALL OF MY SENSE AND MY KNOWLEDGE
I STILL MISS YOU I STILL WISH THAT YOU WERE HERE

I WISH YOU WELL BUT I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE
I WISH YOU WELL AND I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE

ISN’T IT GOOD TO FORGIVE HOW THINGS WERE
GRATEFUL FOR WHO YOU ARE NOW

AND THANKFUL TO ALL WHO HAVE PASSED THROUGH YOUR LIFE
WHO HURT YOU AND WHO SHOWED YOU HOW

BUT SOMETIMES I JUST WANT TO CALL YOU
MAKES ME ANGRY KNOWING HOW I MISS YOU HERE

I WISH YOU WELL BUT I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE,
I WISH YOU WELL AND I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE

AND WHEN THEIR GONE WE TRY TO SWIM AGAINST THE TIDE
YOU CAN’T MOVE ON UNTIL YOU STOP DENYING
JUST HOW MUCH THEY TOUCHED YOUR LIFE... HERE


HERE, I WISH YOU WELL BUT I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE
I WISH YOU WELL AND I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE
