I opened my eyes this morning,
And to my disbelief,
I was smiling and happy,
What a sweet relief,
My kids were in the kitchen,
Getting along just fine,
Everything was great,
It warmed my heart and mind,
I head off to work,
How I love that place,
I stopped for just a moment,
Let the sunlight hit my face,
What happened next,
Is difficult to explain,
The river broke the Dam,
And flooded me with pain,
I realize I'm not happy,
Haven't been for years,
I know this for a fact,
The proof is in my tears,
I haven't seen my kids in months,
They're eleven hundred miles away,
The weather man didn't predict,
The storm that hit that day,
It was just a dream,
Sweet Amazing Grace,
I stopped for just a moment,
Let the rainfall hit my face.
