Never Really Here For Long

(album: Better With You - 2022)

It takes a little time to focus
It takes a little while to realise
The darkness is at your disposal
The pain that I feel will soon subside

And I hope I'm the best I can 'cause I'm trying all the time
Oh, I'm searching for a feeling and I don't know why
I'll jump up
Now I'm ready to get right back up off the shelf
And I'll say it with some meaning
Oh, I'll say it with my chest
And I'll go

Hope's on the horizon
As ready as the morning sun
Is it going? Is it almost gone?
No, it's never really here for long
So come a little closer
And I'll tell you what it is I want
'Cause the moment, it's nearly gone
No, it's never really here for long

I've turned in every direction
I know this place 'cause I've lost the faith before
It's time I found the momentum
I'm reaching for change, I'll hold it tight

And I hope I'm the best I can 'cause I'm trying all the time
Oh, I'm searching for the feeling and I don't know why
I'll jump up
Now I'm ready to get right back up off the shelf
And I'll say it with some meaning
Oh, I'll say it with my chest
And I'll go

Hope's on the horizon
As ready as the morning sun
Is it going? Is it almost gone?
No, it's never really here for long
So come a little closer
Let me tell you what it is I want
'Cause the moment, it's nearly gone
No, it's never really here for

All that I desire
Heavy on the heart
I've made my mind up
I'll overcome

All that I desire
Heavy on the heart
I've made my mind up
I'll overcome

I'll jump up
Now I'm ready to get right back up off the shelf
And I'll say it with some meaning
Oh, I'll say it with my chest
And I'll go

Hope's on the horizon
As ready as the morning sun
Is it going? Is it almost gone?
No, it's never really here for long
So come a little closer
Let me tell you what it is I want
'Cause the moment, it's nearly gone
No, it's never really here for long
