You showed me the moon and the stars so bright
Such beauty my eyes had not seen before
My mind had been numb my eyes unseeing
Now struggle i do to fight the blues.

You took my hand and led me on
Into the wilderness where flowers grow
I saw not the thorns that pricked my feet
Just felt the joy of being with you.

Slowly the darkness melted into day
The pain i felt shed away from my life
The path i walked was no more alone
For the stars and the moon shone on for me.

Now far i am from from the demons of pain
So far that nothing can touch me again
You came into my life and made it bloom
There's nothing more i wish to dream about.

Im done with tears, I will shed no more
May choke on them but hold them back
Tears that froze on my eyelashes long
And stained my cheeks and made me weak.

Im done with tears I will cry no more
Stand up and smile and brave the storm
No more will I let the pain pull me down
No more in the dark will I my pillow wet.

Im done with tears so help me God
Make it through the day so grey and cold
The strength I got from each struggle new
Is what will now keep the tears buried.
