“All Is Well and So It Is”
(warm country/soul ballad)
Verse 1
Me and Teresa, we were fire and gasoline
Laughin’ in the kitchen, chasin’ every crazy dream
Life got heavy, hearts got loud
Somewhere in the silence we got lost in the crowd
But I still see her in the little things
Morning coffee and angel wings
Every hard truth she helped me face
Every broken piece she helped replace
Pre-Chorus
She’d say,
“Baby, stand up, don’t you quit
The light inside you still exists”
Chorus
I am happy, healthy, wealthy, whole and healed now
Say it loud enough to drown out every breakdown
When the world gets dark and the road feels cold
I hear her voice inside my soul
All is well and so it is
Even after pain like this
Some souls change you, deep and true
And Teresa… I thank God for you
Verse 2
Yeah, we had a fallout, that’s what humans do
Sometimes love gets tangled in a different point of view
But I’ll never erase the good she gave
The wisdom and the strength she helped me save
That affirmation hangs beside my bed
Like a prayer for the living and the things unsaid
And every day I read those lines
I feel her light still next to mine
Pre-Chorus
She taught me healing ain’t pretend
Sometimes love can change, not end
Chorus
I am happy, healthy, wealthy, whole and healed now
Learning how to stand back up when life knocks me down
And when my faith gets thin and my heart feels tired
Her words relight the fire
All is well and so it is
Peace can still exist in this
Some souls leave a lasting view
And Teresa… I’ll always love you
Bridge
Maybe someday roads reconnect
Maybe they don’t, but I still respect
The woman who helped me learn my worth
And speak good things into this earth
Final Chorus
I am happy, healthy, wealthy, whole and healed now
No more letting fear and sorrow run this whole town
I bless the tears, I bless the scars
I bless the people who shaped my heart
All is well and so it is
That’s the gift she left in this
And every time those words ring through
I send a little love to you…
Teresa.
