I am no saint, I am no healer, but I’ve seen your inner light

I am witness to the beauty in your spirit and your life

At times I don’t know what to say, wish I could wave a magic wand

Cloak you in our love, keep you from all harm

I am no sage, I am no seer, I’ve heard many reasons why

Some seize upon a lifeline, some let it slip on by

Sometimes we only know you let it go that final time

Not how long you held so tightly, how fiercely you did fight

Reach out, reach out

I am holding out my hand

I am holding out my hand, I see you

Reach out, reach out

I am holding out my heart

I am holding out my heart to you      

Why is there money for our jails, countless legal wars

But when it comes to healing minds, endless waits in corridors?

When will we realize our greatest measure’s how we treat

Someone asking for our help in their deepest need?
