as good as it gets

remember the joy that would come without warning

opened your eyes

woke you up on a saturday morning

i remember

running outside to a world with no fear

wide open spaces and summers that lasted for years

i remember it clear

these days all i feel

is a longing all too real

you take my eyes off of the future

you lead my heart out of the past

you are the promise here in the moment

where i find my rest

you are as good as it gets

there have been days that i wished would be over

no margin to give

just the strength to roll over

i remember

thinking that all my best days were behind me

tomorrow would come rushing in like some kind of prince charming

i remember it clear

but these days what i feel

in the struggle you are real

you take my eyes off of the future

you lead my heart out of the past

you are the promise here in the moment

where i find my rest

you are as good as it gets

you make it easy

you make it easy

you take my eyes off of the future

and you lead my heart out of the past

you are the promise here in the moment

where i find my rest

this is as good as it gets
