lyrics

Everything changes in an instant
One moment it’s dark and then it’s light
Sometimes things change before you’re in it
And your heart gives out before you enter the fight

And though I’m really trying
The dark still pulls my sleeves sometimes

But I know, in my bones
That storms don’t last forever, even if they make you feel weathered
And I’ll go, my roots I’ll sew
I will see this storm through, I’ll do whatever I have to do
To feel sunlight

And if we’re counting years
I had 20 long without the light
But now the sun is rising
And I reckon I’ve seen that girl in flight

And though it took a lot of work
Every ache was worth this sight

But I know, in my bones
That storms don’t last forever, even if they make you feel weathered
And I’ll go, my roots I’ll sew
I will see this storm through, I’ll do whatever I have to do
To feel sunlight

So I choose this life every morning
And I know it’s not who you wanted me to be
And in the light there’s no perfection
But this is the first time I’ve felt free

So I know, in my bones
These storms don’t last forever, even when they made me feel weathered
And I’ll go, my roots I’ll sew
I have seen these storm through, every time they blow through
I feel sunlight

Everything changes in an instant
One moment it’s dark and then it’s light
