My mind has finally settled
Like a peace after a storm
The gales have turned to whispered breeze
The night turned to the morn
The shrieking raging tempest
Gives way to sparrow song
The white hot lightening's fire
Has melted to the dawn
Through the trembling of thunder
Through the battery of hail
Through the fury of the heavens
The sun will still prevail
She twinkles in the darkness
Reflected in the moon
She melts the icy hardness
Freeing spring from winter's tomb
So too my heart now blossoms
Having weathered winter's blight
Sometimes we need the darkness
To appreciate the light

My mind has finally settled
Like a peace after a storm
The gales have turned to whispered breeze
The night turned to the morn
The shrieking raging tempest
Gives way to sparrow song
The white hot lightening's fire
Has melted to the dawn
Through the trembling of thunder
Through the battery of hail
Through the fury of the heavens
The sun will still prevail
She twinkles in the darkness
Reflected in the moon
She melts the icy hardness
Freeing spring from winter's tomb
So too my heart now blossoms
Having weathered winter's blight
Sometimes we need the darkness
To appreciate the light
