My Best

from A Piece of the Sky by Tret Fure

/

lyrics

If I had stayed at home
If I had had 2 kids
How would my life me different than the one I own
If I had stayed at home
If I had had 4 kids
Would I have been much different in my tone
If I had never left
This place that meant so much
If my family had fulfilled me like they do
Oh wait...perhaps I’m already living that life too

Perhaps the longing is
The fact we don’t have tools
To unlock the many lives we own
Perhaps our longing is just a memory
Because our memories always take us home
If we never leave
Can we come home again
If we never cross a boundary or road
Perhaps we cross so many times
We just don’t know

Space and time and circumstance
This is how the world unfolds
Sometimes more deeply than we know

If I ever stop, if I ever quit
If I ever end my search by tooth and bone
I would not be true to my own truths
And I would never find that place that I call home
I am happy here, I have found a perch
By definition it’s a place of rest
What comforts me, at this time of life, I feel my best
