The tempest blew outside my door
A fierce and frightful beast.
It picked me up, and with a roar
Brought mountains to their knees.
The tempest tossed me here and there
Until my soul was torn,
I trembled, shattered with despair
Amid the raging storm.
I questioned why it brought me here
All shaken to the core,
But all it said was “Do not fear,
I’ll teach you how to soar!”
The tempest took me through the cold—
The bleak and biting chill,
We travelled over valleys
And we travelled over hills.
We flew above the dismal land,
Heard thunder proud and strong,
I let the raindrops touch my hand
And listened to their song.
Our journey had arrived its end
I’ve grown my wings and flown,
And with a mighty gust of wind
The tempest brought me home.
