In my fear and confusion I can often isolate myself and put up barriers to others. This isolation can be good for seeking inner wisdom, but it can also lead to a warped sense of self and reality. I wrote this song for my friends who have provided valuable reflections of myself, taught me lessons of love and life, and shape my reality. Thanks for being there.

I sit alone as I watch forgotten days
Autumn teardrops in a morning haze
Too deep in silence to hear my voices cry
An image wanders in a cloudy sky
I think of who I am and what it means to be
I think of others who wonder just like me
And I'll let beauty guide me
As long as you're beside me

Because we need love to live on
We need hope to be strong
Find it in yourself and give to someone else
I'll give you all that I can
And you help make me what I am
In living we will share and in growing we will care

So lost in feeling, the confusion deep inside
Within illusion somewhere purpose hides
I sense an answer as I think of all I've done
An autumn day grows bright with rising sun
The answer that I seek comes not from inside me
It comes from others whose reflections I can see
You guide me with your feelings
From you I get my meaning
