Could You Believe?

Did you ever feel it?
When the wind came up to speed and
Pulled the colder air around you
And made you curl up in a ball

Could you ever believe it?
When the monster in the hallway
Pulled you out into the bright day
And left you begging for a call

I have been on both sides of this
I have got too big a heart
But you'd guessed that from the start

Did you ever expect that?
The light would make you feel a passion
That you never knew lay in you
But has put you on your knee

I wouldn't say I'm immune to
The comes and goings of a human
When I see another human cry
My tears are more than sympathy

I have been on both sides of this
I have got too big a heart
But you'd guessed that from the start
I have been on both sides of this
I've won and lost and worn the cross home
To a place beyond our sight

Did you ever feel it?
When the painting on the ceiling
Started dripping on the bed sheet
Turning sleeping into art
Could you ever believe?
