How Can We See That Far Lyrics

by Amy Grant and Tom Hemby

 Sung by Amy Grant

 

 We said our promises by candleliht

 You hold my hands, I was dressed in white

 We were young

 How can we see that far?

 How can we see that far?

 

 I knew I wanted you like no one else

 I told my momma that I'd found myself

 In your eyes

 How can we see that far?

 How can we see that far?

 

 But like your daddy said

 The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay

 And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay

 And the mighty wind that knocks us down

 If we lean into it

 Will drive our fears away.

 

 And when I woke in the dead of night

 To hold my hands, push away the fright

 Life had come--a son

 How can we see that far?

 

 Yeah, we were nervous and a little scared

 Until the music of our baby's cry

 Filled the air

 How can we see that far?

 

 But like your daddy said

 The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay

 And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay

 And the mighty wind that knocks us down

 If we lean into it

 Will drive our fears away.

 

 We migh die

 We might live

 We could hurt each other badly

 Do things, things so hard to forgive

 Ooooh, and if time is not our friend

 Your mind might forget me before the end

 And oh, I cannot

 I cannot look that far.

 

 But like your daddy said

 How can we see that far?

 The same sun that melts the wax can harden clay

 And the same rain that drowns the rat will grow the hay

 And the mighty wind that knocks us down

 If we lean into it

 How can we see that far?

 (Gotta lean into it)

 

 Will drive our fears away

 It's the same sun sun, yeah

 And the same rain

 It's the same sun

 And the same rain.
