Because I Can Now
She will never know
My highs and lows
I’m going there
again
Because I can now
Reaching up
And reaching over
again
Never leaving it
alone
Unrighteous dominion
in my past
So I’ll lift a
glass again
And savor all the
flavors
Because I can now
Never leaving it
alone
I’ll pull books
from shelves making piles and heaps
So I reestablish
lines
Read them when I’m
able
Because I can now
She will never know
My highs and lows
I’m going there
again
Because I can now
Reaching up
And reaching over
again
Never leaving it
alone
Because I can now
