A PLACE
I think I'll go somewhere today
to a place I've been before
Not to the family doctor
not to the mall or grocery store
It's the place I often visit
when I'm down and feeling low
It's the place I hold the key to
and no one else will ever know
It's a place where I've fought battles
a place of loneliness and pain
A place where sometimes I go crazy
but it's better than insane
A place I find a little solitude
a place of sunshine in my heart
A place where happiness exists
a place to find a brand new start
Sometimes I need to run away
if it's even for a day
Then I find a new perspective
to take my cloudy skies away
I think everybody has a place
a place where they can also go
It's a place of much contentment
a place you may already know
It's right between your ears
and nestled just behind your eyes
It's a place that holds your secrets
a place where no one tells you lies
I have to go away now
to the place that I speak of
I'm so familiar with this place
indeed , a place I truly love
