I couldn`t even count the times
I`ve had to look away
So you wouldn`t see my teardrops fall
Like a river down my face
I`d trade you places if I could
I`d only be too glad
So you could be like all the rest
But it just don`t work like that
But there will come a day my friend
All the pain and heartaches end
And the greatest gift we`ll ever see
Is when like a bird you`ll fly so free
I pray it won`t be very long
There`ll be no need to sing this song
And we`ll laugh at how we used to say
There will come a day
You never stop impressing me
With quiet strength and faith
Living life with your head held high
And a heart so full of grace
I search for rhyme and reason yes
I try to understand
And try not to worry about those things
That are out of our hands
Repeat Chorus
