Jonah Sonner - All I Can Do Lyrics

I've climbed many mountains
Ran my share of hills
Walked thousands of miles
Driven many more still
But in all of my travels
I've seen nothing but pain
No rest for my body
No peace for my brain

All I can do
Is eat and drink, be merry with you
All I can see
Is chasing the wind with a closed hand

Who can tell me how to live?
Who could show me the road?
Who will take me by the hand?
If my father goes?
The road itself is my teacher
As it grinds me to the ground
Chews me up and spits me out
Leaves me broken and unwound

All I can do
Is eat and drink, be merry with you
All I can see
Is chasing the wind with a closed hand

I try to find beauty
In everything I do
But it's hard when darkness
Is surrounding you
Open up the curtains
Of your heart, dark and cold
Let the light flood into you
Let it break the stronghold

Who am i, that You love me?
That You'd want to take my hand?
What do You know of me?
That I cannot comprehend
I have been so empty
For such a very long time
Longing just to be filled
With Your beautiful sunshine

All I can do
Is eat and drink, be merry with you
All I can see
Is chasing the wind with a closed hand
