A Lot of Things

I heard a sound

And I ran upstairs

And I thought about a lot of things.

I had a dream

And I was scared

And I thought about a lot of things.

I went outside

To get some air

And I thought about a lot of things.

I took a drive

From here to there

And I thought about a lot of things.

I was lonely and felt

That no one cared

And I thought about a lot of things.

So I sat down

Slumped back in my chair

And I thought about a lot of things.

Then I closed my eyes

And said a prayer

And I thought about a lot of things.

And I sensed a joy

Beyond compare

And I thought about a lot of things.

And I felt a God

Who's always there.

And I thought about a lot of things.
