ALWAYS ONLY TOGETHER

Elisa Ashley


When you ask your heart to take its time

Don't speak words that cut like a knife

Why live out a nightmare that doesn’t have to be

Just take some time

Just take some time


So many years it took to learn

Don’t burn it down without concern

Violence creates violence

Doesn't tend to give peace a turn


When your heart is feeling it’s had enough

When all you wanted was real love

When all you’ve done is **** it up—

Says the record that won’t turn off—


Know that soon it’s gonna change

Know that nothing is forever

But for love and that which lets it reign


And love is not a separate thing

Love is always only together

The illusion breaks and it is painful

But it breaks and it reveals


That no one is the enemy

But things'll be the way they have to be

For love to last for eternity

And somehow we are in between

ALL TOGETHER NOW


Finally arriving

How many years has it been

How many stories you've lived

All the ways life became different


All the time, all along, all together, all as one

Here we are

Under the stars

To allow the miracle to be


No one can take the healing away

Each day is finally the day

Gift of God to be able to receive

Only by being willing to believe

The time is new either way

With time to live a life of peace

Peace, peace and more peace

Said the prayer that came to be
