Carrie Newcomer Three Feet Or So
When I'm weary lost or sad
Overwhelmed or just fed up
I say grace for what I have
And most the time that is enough
We are body, skin and bones
We're all the loss we've ever known
What is gone is always near
We're all the love that brought us here
[Chorus]
And the things that have saved us
Are still here to save us
It's not out there somewhere
It's right here, it's right here
If I start by being kind
Love usually follows right behind
It nods its head and softly hums
Saying "Honey that's the way it's done."
We don't have to search for love
Wring our hands and wring our hearts
All we have to do is know
The love will find us in the dark
[Chorus]
And the things that have saved us
Are still here to save us
It's not out there somewhere
It's right here, it's right here
I can't change the whole world
But I can change the world I know
What's within three feet or so
We are body, skin and bones
We're all the love we've ever known
When I don't know what is right
I hold it up into the Light
I hold it up into the Light
I hold it up into the Light
