lyrics

(lyrics)

Will the brown hands you’re holding forgive themselves?
They might, will you?
Your mode of sweetness disarms brutish eyes.
Will your saccharine advice believe in itself?
There’s doubt and hope.
Is hope enough? Will prayer soaked in love prove untenable?

Will the nights that flew by cloud your morning sun?
Don’t wait to see.
Let the good air soften your labored brow.
Sing your song in your key like it's the only one.
Stay flat, one tone.
Let your ostinato cut them to ribbons and say:

“You don’t wet my stone or make sharp my blade
I won’t make the cut til you find my edge and just wait
I might leave your room but won't leave unpaid
I’ll take back my years and cut you clean from my best days
And leave my verses at your feet and let you sing them
Let’s hear you sing my sweetness, sing my mornings
Like you need them”

Will your brown hands in prayer find you up and gone?
Tail lights, big eyes.
Your in-tune unison refrain sirens you to cut them off:

“You don’t wet my stone or make sharp my blade
I won’t make the cut til you find my edge and just wait
I might leave your room but won't leave unpaid
I’ll take back my years and cut you clean from my best days
And leave my verses at your feet and let you sing them
Let’s hear you sing my sweetness, sing my mornings
Like you need them”
