Now believe me, you will heal
forever's not this hurting that you feel
you cannot see inside yourself what others do
but there's a stronger source of hope inside of you

And we all wish that we could take
away the human reasons for your ache
you may not see through all this dark how people care
but we're all pleading for your happiness in prayer

So know you're loved, and all this while
we are poorer from the absence of your smile
our deepest wish would guarantee
to see your heart as well as it may be

And when that heart comes out of hiding
and the suffering starts to ease
may your joy become contagious
so that others too may see

That the pain is not eternal, but the human spirit is
and no love's more real than one that heals
with the hope that it can give
