Let's tell ourselves that it's great to be alive
Let's take our time to open up our eyes
We mumble words that sound meaningless
When meaning is impossible to find
We try to hold these moments as they glow
We'll breathe them in
And then we'll let them go
And so I ask you to bear witness to this crime
Of letting my heart shine
I'm ready to surrender
ย
Let's take the signs like the lonely hummingbird
That hummed right by
I hummed along, assured
These stormy skies won't be dark enough (these stormy skies)
To throw me off when everything's aligned
The sand in the face
The dull and quiet pain
But for now seems so far away
It seems so far away
And so I ask you to bear witness to this crime
Of letting my heart shine
I'm ready to surrender
We try to hold these moments as they glow
We'll breathe them in and then we'll
Let them go
Let them go
And now we lie together
Face up to the stars
I'm letting my heart shine
I think I just surrendered
Ah, ah, ah, ah
