I heard him say it,
just one time–
How one moment of crazy courage can change a life
And for whatever reason, I believed him
And leaped with two determined feet
into the fray.
And life has been so much better
And love has been so much better
And tomorrow is no more beautiful
than today.
And so I look around and find you
sitting there unfettered to the social mores
And political correctness of today’s world,
a lighthouse in the mist of time
a beacon in my eye,
And I can’t stop staring
Because that simple courageous act
Altered my world forever.
And that would not have happened
without you.
