Make Us Wise

You're never where you want to be
When the news reaches out and finds you
So it is you're on your own with your beating heart
I wish I was there to hold you; take your hand and console you
But don't it always seem to go that sorrows find us alone

When the tears arrive
Let them ease the pain
I think it's going to rain a while
Then love will remain

I mean to encourage us both and I'm really only hoping
That healing comes after feeling and insight follows the reeling
But I'm not so smart right now; I'm angry and I'm weary
The best of me is far away; I mean to say, I'm lonely

And when the tears arrive
Love is not the cause
Once the pain subsides
Love will make us wise

To share the sorrow
May be the answer
To come together
Would make it better

I'm searching for perspective and I'm passing it along
Part of us knows part of him isn't really gone

When the tears arrive
Let them ease the pain
I think it's going to rain a while
Then love will remain
