As Good As It Gets

Remember the joy that would come without warning

Opened your eyes, woke you up on a Saturday morning

I remember running outside to a world with no fear

Wide open spaces and summers that lasted for years

I remember it clear

These days all I feel

Is a longing all too real

You take my eyes off of the future

You lead my heart out of the past

You are the promise here in the moment

Where I find my rest

You are as good as it gets

There have been days that I wished would be over

No margin to give, just the strength to roll over

I remember thinking that all

My best days were behind me

Tomorrow would come rushing in

Like some kind of prince charming

I remember it clear

These days what I feel

In the struggle you are real

You make it easy

You make it easy
