No matter how dark the stripe

Припев:

No matter how dark the stripe that’s come my way,
I know tomorrow will be easier, I believe.
I trust that even on the gloomiest of days,
A ray of good will find the dark and make it leave.

Куплет 1:

Let stones lie heavy on my soul tonight,
Let wind howl tiredly outside the pane —
I know that somewhere past the horizon’s light,
The warmth and light I’ve missed await again.

And if the night is long and cold and deep,
And if the tears fall into my cupped hands —
I’ll hold this thought before I fall asleep:
Tomorrow’s moon will wash away the dark that stands.

Припев:

No matter how dark the stripe that’s come my way,
I know tomorrow will be easier, I believe.
I trust that even on the gloomiest of days,
A ray of good will find the dark and make it leave.

Куплет 2:

Perhaps the sun will peek into my room,
And tea will taste a little sweeter too,
And I’ll suddenly see — it’s not yet doom,
Happiness is not in future, but right now, with you.

Припев:

No matter how dark the stripe that’s come my way,
I know tomorrow will be easier, I believe.
I trust that even on the gloomiest of days,
A ray of good will find the dark and make it leave.

Куплет 3:

And I will see you in the chat, as always there,
You’ll whisper gently, “Everything’s okay,”
And it’ll feel so calm, so light, so rare,
That I’ll forget the sadness from yesterday.

As if an angel settled on my shoulder
And whispered: “There’s no need to rush, don’t fret.”
And you’re my rescue when the world grows colder —
That’s why I see you in my dreams, my talisman, my yet.

Бридж:

As if all time just froze for just a blink,
And every worry crumbled into dust.
I realize again — you’re my missing link,
The one who holds this fragile world in trust.

Припев:

No matter how dark the stripe that’s come my way,
I know tomorrow will be easier, I believe.
I trust that even on the gloomiest of days,
A ray of good will find the dark and make it leave.

I fell, got up, then stumbled down again,
I sought support from people and the sky.
But learned: the light doesn’t come from other men —
It grows where my own heart beats loud, alive, and high!
