That Would Be Enough

Look around,look around,at how lucky we are to be alive right now

Look around,look around

How long have you known?

A month or so

Eliza,you should have told me

I wrote to the general a month ago

No

I begged him to send you home

You should have told me

I'm not sorry

I knew you'd fight until the war was won

The war's not done

But you deserve a chance to meet your son

Look around,look around,at how lucky we are to be alive right now

Will you relish being a poor man's wife?

Unable to provide for your life

I relish being your wife

Look around,look around

Look at where you are

Look at where you started

The fact that you're alive is a miracle

Just stay alive,that would be enough

And if this child shares a fraction of your smile

or a fragment of your mind to look out world

That would be enough

I don't pretend to know

The challenges you're facing

The worlds you keep erasing and creating in your mind

But I'm not afraid

I know who I married

So long as you come home at the end of the day

That would be enough

We don't need a legacy

We don't need money

If I could grant you peace of mind

If you could let me inside your heart

Oh,let me be a part of the narrative

In the story they will write someday

Let this moment be the first chapter

Where you decide to stay

And I could be enough

And we could be enough

That would be enough
