Why Not Now

Every single whisper
Is a secret waiting to escape
And every single promise
The coming days may soon erase

You're always breaking
But never breaking through
But I know we were made for greater things
And I'll die believing it's true

Somewhere in the darkest part of night
I look for a holy place

Somewhere in this ocean
We could touch and fall in love
The world (could) just fall apart
But we could touch and fall in love
So why not now
Now

Take the time to cry awhile
And face this crushing pain
I believe that healing waits for you
On this side of the day

Wrap yourself in sorrow
And the grief this life has cost
Then tell me what you're gaining here
Is more that what you've lost

Somewhere in the darkest part of night
We'll find a holy place

Somewhere in this ocean
We could touch and fall in love
The world (could) just fall apart
But we could touch and fall in love
So why not now
Now

The heart cannot contain what it holds most dear
But none of your tears are wasted
Not one single tear
