Tide Will Turn

 © Anne Sumner 2013

 

We're all waiting for miracles
We're all chasing the things that we want
We all wish it was easier
To get to the places we wish we could go
And the answer it lies in the choices we can't bring ourselves to make

And the fields will burn when the wildfire comes
And you're freed from all you let go
Take your leap of faith, believe in the change
And the tide will turn, before you know

There's no time like the here and now
All you needed is here in your hands
It takes courage to tear it down
But if this doesn't scare you, then nothing else can
And if everything changes then I will be here to take care of you

And the fields will burn when the wildfire comes
And you're freed from all you let go
Take your leap of faith, believe in the change
And the tide will turn, before you know

And the doubters will speak of a ship that has sailed
They don't like to admit there's a chance they might fail
But believers they wait for a change in the wind
And they'll suddenly see all your lost ships coming in

You've been waiting for centuries
Counting chances and storing up truth
Lay in wait for your destiny
And there's nobody out there to claim it but you
And if you don't believe that it's coming then how can it come to you?

And the fields will burn when the wildfire comes
And you're freed from all you let go
Take your leap of faith, believe in the change
And the tide will turn, before you know
