Now There is light coming in Through the crack in the door Now There is hope Where i’d never expect it before Now There are so many things But there’s nothing at all Now You are learning to stand I am learning to fall. Now As the air in the night Becomes cooler and sweet Now I get up seven times Just to cover his feet Now There is pain But i’ve packed it away for next year Now There is newness and grace and for now, There’s no fear. Then I can hardly remember what then used to be Then There was someone i knew Looked exactly like me I was running and running With so much to boast And i had no idea What matters the most Now As the air in the night Becomes cooler and sweet Now I get up seven times Just to cover his feet Now There is pain But i’ve packed it away for next year Now There is newness and grace and for now, There’s no fear. Later When all of this has turned to songs And faded pics Later When colored wooden blocks Turn into heavy bricks Later When you will greet me only With the shyest smile Who knows what later brings? And so meanwhile. Now There is light coming in Through the crack in the door Now There is hope Where i’d never expect it before Now There are so many things But there’s nothing at all Now You are learning to stand I am learning to fall.
