How Come?

How come the best things in life
You can’t explain?
You can tell your friends
And give your feelings names
But when you say it
It is not the same?
Does not come close to the feelings you had
The things you saw
How you were so glad
How you stood in awe
Everyday now harder to be sad
How come?
I can’t just tell everyone
Tell them how great it is to live under this sun
And know our neighbors from the next one
Feel the parts from the first one
The sun before our sun
How come?
You’re always out the door
The moment you have my heart on the floor
I am the one always left wanting more
Why didn’t it work out?
Why am I always trying to know what this life is about?
Why when in a relationship I constantly doubt?
I wish to live in love
I know this is true
So
How come?
I cannot convince you?
But whenever I feel left behind
There is another who shows up
And is there to remind
Make me smile
Realize perhaps I have been living in denial
Not being me
Still waiting for someone else to announce my arrival
Giving my power away
But tomorrow is the day
When I fully control what I do and say
Please Lord let me live this way
How come?
I didn’t just believe
How come?
You did just leave?
But to answer is not for me
I am meant to live
And learn how to live differently
So I won’t be disappointed if I don’t see
I will be happy just to be
Now without thee
I can truly be free
