Lyrics All That Matters - Laura Michelle Kelly

All That Matters

There are days when I feel so afraid
I can hardly remember to breathe
When reality crashes in wave after wave
Pulling me further beneath
So what’s the point in planning for a future
If it all can be stolen away?
It’s all I can do to hold on and survive
When the colors have faded to gray
But my children need so much more from me
And they give me the strength to go on
Whatever may come
All that matters now
Is where I go from here
There’s an easier way if I live for today
The beating of my heart
Is all that matters
He makes sense of all of my chaos
In ways I could never explain
He turns all of my sadness into a smile
He’s helping me live life again
It’s the light in the eyes of my children
It’s the sound of their laughter once more
It’s a glimpse of a life I dared only to dream
And a dream only life could restore
And I know that some may not understand
But he’s guiding me safely to shore
Not afraid anymore
All that matters now
Is where I go from here
There’s an easier way if I live for today
The singing in my heart
Is all that matters
It takes me far away
There’s an easier way if I live for today
The singing in my heart
Is all that matters
