All That Matters (Original Broadway Cast Recording) Lyrics

There are days when I feel so afraid, I can hardly remember to breathe.
When reality crashes in wave after wave, pulling me further beneath.
So what′s the point in planning for a future, if it all can be stolen away
It's all I can do to hold on and survive, when the colors have faded to grey.
But my children need so much more from me, and they give me the strength to go on.
Whatever may come.
All that matters now
Is where I go from here
There′s an easier way if I live for today.
The beating of my heart is all that matters.

He makes sense of all of my chaos. In ways I can never explain.
He turns all of my sadness into a smile. He's helping me live life again.
It's the light in the eyes of my children. It′s the sound of their laughter once more.
It′s a glimpse of a life I dared only to dream, and a dream only life could restore.
And I know that some may not understand, but he's guiding me safely to shore, not afraid anymore!
All that matters now
Is where I go from here
There′s an easier way if I live for today.
The singing in my heart is all that matters.
It takes me far away
There's an easier way if I live for today
The singing in my heart
Is all that matters
