Happy to Be Here Lyrics

It's been a hard, hard road

It's been a long, long year

But the burning in my legs

Tells me I'm moving

I'm not who I was

I'm not who I'll be

I am happy to be here

I can taste the joy in tears

I can let go of all the fear

I am happy to be

Here

I carry the people

I've been all my life

Did their best

To help me to survive

And I hold them tight

And whisper in their ear

"You are safe"

I am happy that you are here

You can taste the joy in tears

You can let go of all your fear

And I am happy that we're

Here

Pain gifts softness

And softness to strength I never knew I had

I can hold myself with an open hand

Forgive you

And finally forgive myself

I am happy to be here

I can taste the joy in tears

I can let go of all the fear

I am happy to be

Here
