After Living Lyrics

After Living

This is the light from embers burning

This is a sign of the worlds returning

This is moment when everything gets real

This is the start of a new beginning

A battle with evil where good is winning

A chance to do things over, somehow improve

After living through the darkest days of winter

Makes you wonder how it is we still go on

But the giving happens even when it's raining

It's because of people's kindness we live on

This is the part where things get better

A break in the clouds after stormy weather

A refuge from the fire and the wind

Now is your chance for a big do-over

To kick up your heels and roll in clover

Tell someone you love you missed them, too

We struggled through the dark

'Til we made it to the dawn

Please forgive us all our sins

There were hard things that we done

For our daughters and our sons

We got stories and that's just the way it is

Until we reach the end

After living through the darkest days of winter

Makes you wonder how it is we still go on

But the giving happens even when it's raining

It's because of people's kindness we live on
