How Far You'll Go - Beth Hirsch

When you’ve been around

Like I’ve been around

You tend to see

Things differently

When you’ve been down

Like I’ve been down

You start again

More carefully

It’s all right there before you

The sages simply state it

We’re the ones who go and

Complicate it

When you’re all alone

Like I was alone

You face the truth

Within yourself

And when you’re on your own

I was on my own

You get it’s you and

No one else

Who knows how to define you?

And let’s your heart refine you

With shadows to remind you

Of how far you’ve come

And how far you’ll go

When you lost love like

I lost love

You learn to treat it preciously

So when you found love like

I found love

You hold it close

And graciously

'Cause someone’s there beside you

Spreading light around you

With shadows to remind you

How far you’ve come

How far you’ve come

'Cause someone’s there beside you

Spreading light around you

With shadows to remind you

How far you’ve come

How far you’ve come

And how far you’ll go
