This Time

Now I’m standing here
The sunlight is soft and warm
Is this a gentle paradise
or only the eye of the storm?
This time will I just give in
when the rain starts to pour down?
This time will I start to swim
or will I start to drown?
Now I’m walking alone
As the wind circles all around
Waiting for the slightest move
Or the first unexpected sound
This time will I raise my sheild when the hunters spot their prey?
This time will I stay in the feild
or will I run away
from who I am
And what I want
and what I can find
and who I will be?
Now I’m moving along
as the twilight begins to spread
I take in this moment
as the clouds gather overhead
This time will I see what’s true
when the lightning streaks through the grey?
This time will it blind my view
or will it light the way
to who I am
and what I want
and what I can find
and who will be?
And all these questions in me
are fading away as I suddenly see
I can embrace everything behind me
And find the place where I finally find me
Now I run with you
As a new sun begins to rise
I can see forever
Through these endless big blue skies
Now is the only time
Here is the only place
This is all I want to be
This time I can see the view
This time the sun will shine through
This time
This time
This time
