lyrics

I’ve walked around this park now
Feels like a thousand times
She’s finally out like a light
And I gather myself to ride the waiting waves
The silence of a blank page
And I fumble for what I want to say
But something’s telling me keep on, keep on.

Day by day I am consumed
By the rhythm of a life not my own
But this fire burns hard in the cracks and the shards
And it’s brighter than I’ve ever known

She came to me with a seed Held perfectly
Within her tiny hand
And as I learned to hold her precious heart
So it was that I was taught to understand
The secrets of the back and forth
The calm within the stop and start
No more of this harsh talk
Open up and trust

Note by note and line by line
I am singing it all to life
In the ground for so long
Now the leaves are turning tenderly
Towards the sun

The blanket begins to move
Her legs stretch out
Little eyes open
