So sad, when I heard the news
Something is hurting you
Though I can't know your pain
We're all here for you

Chorus:
Somewhere the light is breaking through
And the light it shines on you
After all the love we shared
All the love comes back to you
After all the life you give
A gift of life comes through for you

Listen to the pouring rain
Soon the storm will end
In the garden the birds will sing
A thousand songs for you

This song is dedicated to Susan Lightwater who suffered both renal failure and a stroke, but is now doing quite well thanks to a kidney transplant in 2001. Susan's indominatable spirit is an inspiration to all who have had the good fortune to come to know her.
