Found God In Her Eyes 


He took me down a road that's a little bit windy


As I sat gazing out the back window, I said “Hey driver, you can drop me off anywhere”


 He took me to a place I had never seen before, but I had been to thousands of times


It felt like I was thousands of miles from home. It wasn't El Dorado


I'm sure it was around the East Side Of Sorrow


My past unfolds in front of my eyes as I watch the moon glow

 

I remember, I remember everything 


Time Ticking in front of me, my feels as the body of a blue collar Tradesman working Overtime


Thousands of miles from home in Summertime’s Close


I start to think about my life, time is passing everyday before my eyes. 


That was until I found God in her eyes.


I learned that grand things aren't what matter, she prefers things that are worthwhile


Like breathing and chasing and slow dancing and love making and fighting and laughing


Be there for her and be there for God, do the little things. Smaller Acts


Be her Tourniquet, stop her bleeding even if you get blood on yourself 


Bandage up her body and her bones and her bad days too


Because she remembers everything… 


And I know neither of us are Spotless, but I found God in her eyes 


So for once in my life I’m going to see it through

The author's comments:

In this piece I used song titles and lyrics from Zach Bryan's new album Zach Bryan. I created a story that relates to my life and the turning point I hit when I realized that God was real. I realized how blessed I am for everything and everyone in my life. It is all because I found God
