You're the Song

These tiny hands are mine
Come here and trace the lines
Unorganized, unfinished rhymes
Each one there for you to read

Here's where my heart resides
The sadness and the butterflies
Wrapped up and waiting there to fly
For your hands to set them free

I never needed words to say
I never needed to explain
That in the language of the everyday
Your love, it rescues me
You never had to translate my heart
You never had to pull the words apart
In the orchestra of every day
You're the song I wanna sing

This is my scattered mind
It wants to think about you all the time
You connected all your thoughts to mine
And the patterns never let me be
My voice was broke but true
But somehow it was clear to you
The song I wrote you already knew
Before there was you and me

I never needed words to say
I never needed to explain
That in the language of the everyday
Your love, it rescues me
You never had to translate my heart
You never had to pull the words apart
And in the orchestra of every day
You're the song I wanna sing

I wanna sing, I wanna know
Are we steady as a metronome?
We took our time, your hand in mine
And we're never gonna slow down

And I never needed words to say
I never needed to explain
That in the language of the everyday
Your love, it rescues me
You never had to translate my heart
You never had to pull the words apart
And in the orchestra of every day
You are the song I wanna sing
The song I wanna sing
The song I wanna sing
