High | Lighthouse Family

When you're close to tears remember
Some day it'll all be over
One day we're gonna get so high
And though its darker than December
What's ahead is a different colour
One day we're gonna get so high

And at the end of the day
Remember the days
When we were close to the edge
And we wonder how we made it through
And at the end of the day
Remember the way
We stayed so close til the end
Well, remember it was me and you

'Cause we are gonna be forever you and me
You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

Don't you think it's time we started
Doing what we always wanted
One day we're gonna get so high
'Cause even the impossible is easy
When we got each other
One day were gonna get so high

And at the end of the day
Remember the days
When we were close to the edge
And we wonder how we made it through
And at the end of the day
Remember the way
We stayed so close til the end
Well, remember it was me and you

'Cause we are gonna be forever you and me
You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

'Cause we are gonna be forever you and me
You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

This is my song. It is what keeps me looking up and towards the horizon, keeps me buoyant even as I feel I'm drowning in misery and I know I must stay afloat. This song has seen me through turmoil, heartbreak, moments of inchoateness, and fatigue from the weight of life. It's who I am. Many times I tear up listening to it.

For every time I feel like I'm slipping again, there's this song. And I sing it to myself, a serenade for me to pull through.
